Vote-by-mail is good, but we can’t disenfranchise voters
Friend,

You may have heard recently that the Nevada Secretary of State, Barbara
Cegavske, announced a transition to a vote-by-mail system for the upcoming
primary elections (and that [ [link removed] ]she’s being sued over it). In a time of
COVID-19, this is the correct call to prevent a Wisconsin-esque scenario
from happening here. However, the current plan is insufficient to protect
the health and right to vote for ALL voters and requires some major
accommodations. 

[ [link removed] ]SIGN OUR PETITION now urging Secretary Cegavske to designate more than
ONE in-person vote center per county, to do the work to verify addresses
of eligible voters, and to make accomodations for voters who speak a
different language, have a disability, or don’t have an address to deliver
a ballot to. 

It is important to make sure no eligible voter is left out of this year’s
critical elections. Those who have moved recently or have been displaced
because of COVID-19 are at the most risk of not receiving a ballot in the
mail. Furthermore, having only one in-person vote center in each county
will undoubtedly lead to massive overcrowding, which poses health and
safety risks not only to voters, but poll workers too. While everyone who
can vote by mail should do so, we need reasonable options for voters who
cannot or aren’t comfortable using such a new system. 

I hope you’ll [ [link removed] ]help us send a message to Secretary Cegavske that her
current plan needs a lot of work to avoid disenfranchisement in the 2020
primary election. 

Sincerely,

Annette Magnus

Executive Director
