Mail voting refers to systems where voters receive ballots at home and return them by mail or drop boxes. This system, used successfully in states like Colorado to achieve 86% turnout, eliminates many traditional voting barriers like polling place access, transportation issues, and time constraints. Mail voting became controversial during the 2020 election.
Mail voting significantly impacts voter turnout by removing barriers to participation, affecting who can vote and election outcomes.
People think mail voting is new or insecure. Many states have used mail voting for decades with proven security measures and high participation rates.
