 America has one of the lowest voter turnout rates of all developed countries. About 40% of the country doesn't vote in the presidential elections, and turnout is even worse in midterm elections and primaries. But it doesn't have to be this way. A policy known as Vote by Mail makes voting more convenient and boost turnout, while still prioritizing security and accuracy. It's already proven it works well in Colorado, Washington, Utah, and other states. So how does it work? Let's take a look at Colorado, known as the gold standard for Vote by Mail. In Colorado, Vote by Mail works like this. First, all registered voters are automatically mailed to ballot before every election. All signatures on mail ballots are compared to on file signatures, and any discrepancies are examined by a bipartisan team of judges, and then further investigated if needed. Voters can submit ballots at secure 24-7 drop boxes or voting centers. It's required that all votes are cast on paper ballots to ensure there's a paper trail that can be verified. Voters can still go vote in person, both during an extended early voting period and on election day. And finally, post-election audits are mandatory after every election to ensure accuracy. Voters like this policy. In Colorado, 95% of those who used mail-in ballots were satisfied with experience. And turnout increased in Colorado among younger voters, Republican voters, and independents. Now, as we face a pandemic, we need secure Vote by Mail more than ever.
