Left

Strongly agree

Yes

Left ideology generally supports making voting as accessible as possible to ensure broad participation in the democratic process. Automatic mail-in ballots are seen as a way to increase voter turnout, which is often a goal of left-leaning parties and organizations. Historical references include the push for mail-in voting during the COVID-19 pandemic by many left-leaning groups and politicians.

Agree

Yes, and making voting compulsory

While making voting compulsory is not universally supported within left ideology, the emphasis on maximizing voter turnout aligns with left-leaning values. Compulsory voting could ensure higher participation rates, which is a goal often pursued by the left. However, the compulsory aspect may also be seen as too coercive by some within the ideology, hence the slightly lower score.

Agree

Yes, but add stricter requirements for eligibility and verification

While left ideology supports broad access to voting, including through mail-in ballots, there may be some support for ensuring the integrity of the voting process through eligibility and verification requirements. However, this support is likely to be cautious, with a strong emphasis on ensuring that such requirements do not act as barriers to voter participation.

Disagree

No, mail in ballots should only be used by voters who are physically incapable of making it to a polling location

Limiting mail-in ballots to only those who are physically incapable of reaching polling locations is seen as too restrictive by left ideology, which favors broader access to voting. This stance is based on the belief that voting should be made as easy and accessible as possible for all eligible voters, not just those facing physical barriers.

Strongly disagree

No

Left ideology typically opposes measures that could potentially restrict voter access or make voting more difficult. Not automatically providing mail-in ballots could be seen as a barrier to participation, especially for those with mobility issues, time constraints, or those living in remote areas.

Very strongly disagree

No, and add stricter requirements for eligibility and verification

Adding stricter requirements for eligibility and verification is often viewed by the left as a form of voter suppression, particularly targeting marginalized and minority communities. Historical examples include opposition to voter ID laws and other restrictions that have been proposed or implemented, which left-leaning groups argue disproportionately affect low-income, minority, and young voters.
