Early voting, other steps needed

To the editor,

To be an engaged citizen is to exercise your right to vote.  It is important that every citizen is given the opportunity to cast their ballot without impediments. I stand with the Vote Better NY campaign for election reform in New York State. This grassroots campaign supports a number of bills that will encourage greater voter participation: early voting, expanded electronic voter registration, enhanced voting access for individuals with disabilities and ballots that are easy to read and understand. 

I encourage you to become involved in this important campaign by signing the online petition at www.VoteBetterNY.org. Take a moment today to urge Albany to bring our elections into the 21st century!
