Let Rhode Island Vote

Every eligible Rhode Islander deserves equal access to the ballot, regardless of how they choose to vote

The pandemic has changed the way we live our lives — including how we vote.

During the 2020 election, emergency measures temporarily expanded voting access giving more Rhode Islanders the opportunity to vote by mail or early in-person than ever before in state history, resulting in record voter turnout.

Rhode Island has codified the policies that expanded access to the ballot for voters in 2020. The RI General Assembly chose to modernize and improve voting access in Rhode Island by passing the Let RI Vote Act.

Our Goals

The first goal was pass the Let RI Vote Act S2007A/H7100. This bill will makes the temporary changes from 2020 permanent — and improves voter access by removing barriers to vote by mail or early in-person in Rhode Island. This Act has become law!

The second goal is to create a pathway toward Same Day Registration in Rhode Island S2216/H7225. Passing this resolution will put a question to Rhode Island voters to amend the state constitution allowing the General Assembly to change the voter registration deadline.
