Politics With Paul #34: US Voting Policy Reforms Part 3 - Potential Future Changes


Listen Later

There's a lot that has changed about US voting policy over nearly 240 years: The expansion of voting rights, more times and methods that we can vote by, accessibility of voting, and so on. But now we look towards the future. What will be different about voting in US elections in the near and not-so-near future?
Today, we tackle the following topics as to where we will likely see at least a little change in the coming years: What offices we vote on, what times of the year we vote, what our primaries look like, early and absentee voting regulations, voter identification laws, and current and ex-felons' ability to vote. We examine some of the arguments surrounding these debates and where we see current legislation relevant to these changes being discussed.
