Vote-By-Mail, Early Voting, & Expanding Voting Options

Our democracy works best when every voter can cast their ballot and be heard. Common Cause is making sure voters have options on how to cast a ballot.

In our democracy, our vote is our voice and every voter across the country deserves a say in the people and policies that impact their lives. That is why we are advocating for proven and secure ways to make voting more convenient for eligible Americans, including:

  • Vote-by-Mail: Letting eligible voters send in their ballots via the USPS,
  • Early Voting: Giving voters extra days before Election Day to cast their ballot,
  • Voting Dropboxes: Allowing voters to place their ballots in secure local receptacles ahead of Election Day.

Reforms like these make elections more accessible while keeping them fair and safe.
