Team, COVID-19 has upset nearly every facet of American life – and it’s become increasingly clear that our democracy itself will not escape the chaos. Many states, including Rhode Island, have already pushed their spring primaries to the summer. And those that did not make the switch in time saw dangerous lines and crowds as voters attempted to balance their health and safety with their right to vote.
Voting should not be dangerous in the United States of America. But this week, Republicans in Wisconsin closed hundreds of polling locations ahead of the primary and refused to move the election to a safer date. With only 5 open polling locations in Milwaukee, voters waited in line for hours to cast a ballot. But this isn’t just about Wisconsin or even just about the primary. Millions of Americans will cast their ballot in November 2020 and we have to decide NOW how they are going to do that safely. Donald Trump is already refusing to consider vote-by-mail – even though Trump himself voted by mail in the Florida primary just last month. He’s insisting, “If you ever agreed to it you'd never have a Republican elected in this country again.” Thanks for taking action, -- Team Cicilline
