Over the past thirty years, America has undergone a revolution in voting. Not long ago, nearly everyone voted on a common election day, today nearly a quarter of Americans vote before Election Day, either by absentee ballot or at early voting places. In Absentee and Early Voting: Trends, Promises, and Perils, Fortier documents the meteoric rise in these forms of voting, both the legal and historical reasons for the changes, and also the many differences in voting patterns across the states. Panelists will examine the latest research on the benefits and drawbacks of voting before Election Day and discuss what voting before Election Day means for the future.
