      We need a fair competency test for all voters, young and old. However there is no way to make and maintain a fair test that has no chance for corruption. So every citizen gets a right to vote with no exceptions. Anything restricting voter rights needs abolished

        Automatic voter registration needs to happen as well as federal holiday for voting with required day off work for everyone.

        Many people lose the chance to vote by being purged from voter rolls or not having time to vote when the voting booth is miles away and they work a 10 hour shift.

          Federal holiday for voting accomplishes nothing as company’s will gladly pay you a extra holiday to keep your vote silent.

          Required day off to vote doesn’t work on its own. All medical staff can’t take off. Many industries can’t afford to cut staff to allow them to vote. We need multiple days to vote on and everyone needs to be given one of those days off paid. 3 voting days and everyone is required to have 1 paid day off during those days should be enough for every business to get their shit together and find coverage. We can operate as normal for those 3 days.

          And finally, more voting locations. Any government building should be a viable voting location. Let me vote at my municipal building. It’s weird I need to go to a church to vote for a government official

        Since everybody gets to vote we should make sure everyone’s competent to vote by educating them.

        At least that was part of the reasoning behind free public education.

        There are a huge number of citizens denied their right to vote for no other crime than having not existed for an arbitrary number of days. That, too, should be abolished.
