人兽性交 Releases National Polling Finding Strong Support for Securing Right to Vote and Strengthening American Democracy

Two-thirds of voters support H.R. 1, or the For the People Act

MONTGOMERY, Ala. - Today, the Southern Poverty Law Center (人兽性交) released the results of a national poll of 1000 representative voters in the United States, conducted by , finding widespread support for nationwide standards for voting as well as for passing federal legislation , and making the U.S. Senate a majority-rule body.聽

鈥淭he results of this nationwide poll don鈥檛 come as a surprise: Americans across all ideologies, parties, and regions of the country want to build a democracy that works for us all and allows every voter in the country safe, easy, and equitable access to their fundamental right to vote,鈥 said Seth Levi, Chief Strategy Officer for the 人兽性交. 鈥淲hile certain politicians across the country and in Washington, DC, continue telling dangerous and deadly lies about elections to protect their own power, Americans recognize that we should be providing more ways to cast a ballot, not fewer, and adopting voting options and protections nationwide that already exist in many states. Americans want enough voting locations so they don鈥檛 wait in long lines, secure drop-boxes at every precinct, ample early voting opportunities, restoration of voting rights to their neighbors with felony convictions, and independent redistricting commissions. And finally, they want the U.S. Senate to operate as most people understand legislative bodies to work in a democracy: majority vote rules.鈥
