Welcome to the Number of the Day

November 24, 2020

Eighty-three percent (83%) of Pennsylvania voters say it's important to reform Pennsylvania’s voting laws before the next election. A PoliticalIQ survey found that just 11% disagree.[1]

Those totals include 63% who say election law reform is "Very Important" and only 3% who say it is "Not at All Important."[1]

There's also strong support for many specific reforms:

88% agree that, prior to the election, government agencies should clean the voter registration files and remove the names of all who have moved or died.
75% strongly approve of requiring all mail-in ballots to be received by Election Day.
68% think government agencies should be required to report the vote totals from all ballots on Election Night.
88% believe both Republican and Democratic party officials should be allowed in the room for every step of the ballot collection and ballot counting procedures.
75% say all voters who cast their ballot in person should be required to show a photo ID before voting.
For those who mail in their ballot, 58% believe they should be required to include a copy of their photo ID.
56% want ballot harvesting to be outlawed.[1]

Additionally, 69% want mail-in ballots sent only to those who request them. Twenty-seven percent (27%) believe they should be sent to all voters.[1]
