Now more than ever, fears of voter fraud are being weaponized to suppress votes. #EnhancedAVR combats this with built-in citizenship checks, ensuring only eligible citizens register, making New York State elections both secure AND accessible. #EmpowerWithEAVR

400,000 eligible unregistered voters live in Nassau and Suffolk counties. #EnhancedAVR would make voting more accessible for eligible Long Islanders who deserve to be represented in their elections. #NYVotes

Charles Lavine: Enhanced automatic voter registration is needed
Democracy begins at the ballot box. But for far too many Long Islanders—especially working-class residents, naturalized immigrants, and communities of color—that access remains out of reach.

Latino voters make up nearly 25% of the city’s voting population, yet 300,000 eligible Latinos are not registered. #EnhancedAVR is how we make sure as many eligible voices as possible are included in the democratic process. #VotingRights

It’s proven that #EnhancedAVR means more voters! Colorado doubled DMV registrations with EAVR, and Delaware saw a 30% increase. It would maximize registration rates and reduce errors, giving MILLIONS the power of the ballot. #DemocracyCantWait
