These are challenging times -- and with the 2020 general election right around the corner, I know many Pennsylvanians are worried about how they’ll do their part and vote.
If you’re one of those citizens concerned about voting, I’ve got good news for you: Pennsylvania voters can now vote by mail without giving a reason for needing a mail-in ballot.
Unfortunately, other states lack the same level of access. I believe that every voter in every state should have the chance to vote this November without risking their health or putting loved ones at risk in the middle of a global pandemic.
We know the president and his GOP allies will work against us. President Trump, despite voting by mail himself, has called the process “horrible,” “corrupt,” and “dangerous.” John, my team, my family, and I all voted by mail in this year’s primary. The process was easy, secure, and accessible.
But the fact is, mail-in-ballots increase voter turnout -- so these GOP attacks on VBM are just another attempt to suppress the vote.
Thank you so much for standing with me in the fight to expand access to the polls.
I couldn’t do this without you.
Thanks again,
Mary Gay
