"Nearly 97% of voting-age American citizens now live in states that offer the option to vote before Election Day"
The Center for Election Innovation and Research@ElectionInnov
"For voters who have been told there are powerful forces trying to prevent them from voting, or may have experienced that in the past, it’s not their fault for thinking that voting might be harder than it is. Honestly, they’re why we did this report." npr.org/2024/03/19/123…

Relying on millions of voters - already overburdened by the pandemic & major economic stresses (let alone every other aspect of their personal lives) - to save our democracy over & over again, only for each to be only a temporary fix is really not that. And it's not sustainable.

@EliMcCann Smells a lot like the Hanna Rosin tweet about Fire Island failing the Bechdel test - complete miss of the spirit of the concept and unnecessarily divisive 😬
