Senior Citizen Voter Bill of Rights

Voting is a cherished and precious right for all Americans — the American Constitutional Rights Union has been fighting for free and fair elections for decades. Now, we must turn our efforts to protect and preserve the right to secure voting for our senior citizens.

For a variety of reasons, senior citizens may face voting challenges. Transportation hurdles, technology advances, mobility issues, and other aging-related factors can make it difficult for seniors to vote in person or via absentee ballots. Often, due to living arrangements in assisted care facilities, seniors must trust and rely on others for voting assistance. Sadly, these conditions make fraud more likely.

We must do everything in our power to make sure the votes of our senior citizens are protected and counted fairly. This Senior Citizen Voter Bill of Rights outlines what our senior citizens can and should expect from our election systems — an environment respecting the voting choices of our citizens while making it easy to vote and hard to cheat.

Washington Times, March 31, 2020

“There wasn’t a signature. There was just an ‘X’. She was either coerced or someone else put an x for her name.”

The Philadelphia Inquirer, November 3, 2017

Florida law has failed to keep up with the growing popularity of mail-in voting, leaving candidates and campaigns free to manipulate voters — even to the point of helping them fill out their ballots, a Palm Beach Post investigation found.

SIGN THE ELDERLY VOTING RIGHTS PETITION

The American Constitutional Rights Union and the American people deeply honor and appreciate our nation’s seniors for the positive influence and tremendous sacrifices they have made to ensure the safety and security of our nation at home and abroad.

By signing the Protect Elderly Votes Petition, I join with ACRU to repay that debt, at least in part, by enhancing the security of senior votes.

I pledge to use the resources of the Protect Elderly Votes project and the Senior Citizens Voter Bill of Rights to assist and educate our elderly relatives, neighbors and friends about registering to vote if they are in a new area of residence, and protecting them from any individual or institutional vote fraud or ballot manipulation.

I pledge to protect their intent when they are registering to vote as well as defending the integrity of their private ballot.







Thank you for your support!

VOTING RIGHTS ISSUES IN THE NEWS

Georgia Legislature Must Enforce Ban on Big Tech’s Attempted Takeover of Elections

Last night Georgia’s Senate Ethics Committee agreed to S.B. 222, anti-corruption legislation which would help enforce the state’s existing ban on the private financing of local election offices by ideological groups, corporations, Big Tech companies, and possible foreign interlopers. The bill, which was prompted after the scheme resurfaced this year in DeKalb County, now goes to the Rules Committee for further consideration.

Biden’s DHS Reveals How It Plans To Interfere In U.S. Elections

In its latest attempt to interfere in the electoral process, the Biden administration announced on Monday that the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) is planning to award millions of taxpayer dollars to local governments throughout the country for so-called “election security” purposes.

Jason Snead: The Ranked-Choice Voting Virus Spreads To Utah

"A guinea pig.” That is what Sandy, Utah Mayor Monica Zoltanski said that “ranked-choice voting” (RCV) made of her hometown. The town opted into Utah’s controversial RCV pilot program, but the experiment has not gone well. The cost-saving promised by proponents never materialized, but the real alarm bells should have sounded when the experiment produced voter confusion and voter disengagement.Yet instead of ending this failed pilot program, Utah legislators are now considering a bill to expand ranked-choice voting to primary elections for state and federal office.

NAACP head slams ranked choice voting, urges overhaul of board

The head of the NAACP in New York slammed the new ranked-choice voting system as “voter suppression” while calling for an overhaul of the bumbling New York City Board of Elections.“Ranked choice voting is not beneficial to minorities. It’s voter suppression,” Hazel Dukes, president of the NYS chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, said Thursday in a phone interview.

WHY WE CARE

American Constitutional Rights Union deeply honors and appreciates America’s seniors for the positive influence and tremendous sacrifices they have made to ensure the safety and security of our nation at home and abroad. With our Protect Elderly Votes project, we hope to repay that debt, at least in part, by enhancing the security of senior votes.

We celebrate our patriotic seniors and the invaluable contributions they have made to the financial strength and fundamental freedoms we enjoy as Americans. In turn, we must take every action to ensure the integrity and intent of our seniors’ political choices at a time when they are at risk to be targets of vote fraud. Americans under 65 must demonstrate their gratitude for the continued guidance of our treasured seniors by protecting their votes.
