Sharon Ludwig signed Stop Voter Suppression Now 2018-03-23 20:13:39 -0500In Alden 1 precinct, we judges of election were given 400 Republican, 250 Democrat ballots of Style 1, and 25 each of ballot Style 248. It turned out that most of our voters were needing style 248, and we needed to call in to the Clerk’s office for more Style 248 several times, for the people who did not want to use the touch screen machine, since there was sometimes a line for the single machine. We judges were concerned that the styles were reversed, and the proposition question that made the difference MAY have been voted on by the wrong group of voters.
Stop Voter Suppression Now!
The McHenry County Clerk has decided to eliminate dozens of polling locations in 2018, presumably in an attempt to save money. The Clerk has not provided evidence that this plan will save any money at all, but it will definitely make it harder for thousands of citizens to vote. As many as 10 precincts are being crammed into one location. Parking will be at a premium at many of the consolidated locations, especially for elderly and disabled voters. The right to vote is the most important right we have as American citizens. We must not allow a bureaucrat to jeopardize our ability to participate in American democracy.
