Friend -- Remember when the Supreme Court's conservative majority forced voters in Wisconsin to choose between protecting their health and casting their vote? Well, they just did it again.
The absentee ballot process in Alabama is burdensome under normal circumstances, but during a public health emergency it's downright dangerous. First voters must request an absentee ballot by mailing in a copy of their photo ID (assuming they have a photo ID; 11 percent of people don't). That means a trip to a public scanner for folks who don't have one at home.
On top of that, voters have to get their absentee ballots signed by either two witnesses or a notary -- at a time when we're supposed to be minimizing contact!
At the NDRC, we're fighting to make voting safe and accessible for all Americans, both in 2020 and beyond. But with Republicans spending $20 million to stop us, we need your help.
Pitch in for fair elections this year and every year.
