Dear [elected official],

Personalize your message

Dear Mayor Kabat, Deputy Clerk Elsen and Clerk Lehrke,

I am writing to ask you to enact a variety of measures for the upcoming elections so voters do not have to choose between their health and their right to vote.

The ability to safely vote is at the foundation of our democracy and our country itself. Voting is America’s most powerful and equitable way to be heard as individuals and communities. Our right to vote came under threat this past April when voters were asked to choose between their health and their right to vote.

We recommend the city take quick action so that individuals do not have to choose between their health and their right vote in November.  We are asking for the city to prioritize the following measures to ensure a fair, safe and free election:

1) Strive to identify, prepare, and maintain the standard number of polling locations. At a minimum, the city should have at least seventy-five percent of an average election’s total number of polling locations open for Election Day

2) Develop and enact a plan for the recruitment and retention of poll workers to be made available to the public

3) Identify, prepare, and maintain suitable areas for drive through voting for both early and same day voting. Ensure that every in-person polling location has functional curbside voting as required by state statute

4) Provide at least three secure absentee ballot drop boxes throughout the city;

Access to voting is one of the most vital duties of a city. Please help to make voting safe for the people of La Crosse.

Thank you,

Sincerely, [Your information here]
