Every eligible voter in Pennsylvania has a right to make their voice heard at the polls. We must make sure voting is accessible for all of us by protecting no-excuse mail in voting and secure ballot drop boxes, standing against onerous voter ID proposals, keeping the Automatic Voter Registration program in place, and more.

Learn more about our goals in the PA Senate Democratic Caucus to make voting more accessible.

Pennsylvania is one of ten states that has fully closed primary elections, meaning only registered Democratic or Republican voters can cast their ballots in primary elections. When we deny so many Independent and third-party Pennsylvanians the ability to vote simply because of their party affiliation, we deprive ourselves of the opportunity to have a truly representative and responsive government. I am continuing to fight in Harrisburg for open primary elections to ensure our electoral system is equitable and accessible for every qualified Pennsylvania voter

False narratives surrounding our elections and Republican voter suppression efforts have to be met with strong opposition. Just because an election is close does not mean it is illegitimate. On the contrary, it highlights that in a democracy, every single vote makes a difference, and the voters – not politicians or judges – have the final word.

Here, in Pennsylvania, your vote is protected, and your vote matters. I will always stand up against rumors and lies about our elections, about this country, and about our fellow Pennsylvanians.
