Issue Position: Election Reform

Issue Position

Fair and open elections are key to democracy.
I support Fair Districts and the absolute need to have an independent council set district boundaries. Gerrymandering divides communities and marginalizes our voices.
We need to break down barriers to voter registration and early voting in Pennsylvania by considering options such as automatic registration, same day registration, early voting, modernized absentee ballots, and modernized balloting machines.
What started as an effort toward non-partisan redistricting in Harrisburg recently became an effort to encourage partisan gerrymandering. Elected officials should NOT choose their constituents- constituents should choose their elected officials. To do otherwise threatens democracy.
