People detained pretrial still have the right to vote. New York should help them exercise this right by providing voter registration forms and absentee ballots in jails. My bill will do just that. These are people who are accused, not convicted. See it: cityandstateny.com/opinion/2024/0…

“....we have a duty to ensure all eligible voters - including those in jails - can exercise their right to the franchise and sometimes that means taking access to the franchise to them." - Ashley Torres (D) & John Quigley (R), Ulster County Election Commissioners

People detained in jails have the right to vote, but without real access to the ballot. We can change that in NY by passing the #DemocracyDuringDetention bill from NYS Senator Zellnor Y. Myrie 米维 & @TheRealLatriceWalker

This bill is modeled on the system already in place for folks who are in nursing homes, hospitals, and substance abuse facilities, so election administrators currently have the processes in place to make voting in jails real in NYS.

The pilot in the Ulster County jail shows that helping people detained in jails is doable, and more than that, it is the responsibility of every county Board of Elections, so let’s make it the law by passing #DemocracyDuringDetention - nysenate.gov/legislation/bi…
