On April 29, 2025 founding CEO of the New Pennsylvania Project, Kadida Kenner posted an opinion piece in Tirb Live titled: State government can secure our access to the ballot
“What we see consistently on the ground in our communities is that the vast majority of everyday voters have lots of other things they’re focused on other than politics. They’re worried about things like putting food on the table, keeping an affordable roof over their family’s heads, getting the kids to after school activities on time and taking care of aging relatives. The average Pennsylvanian simply doesn’t have the time to tune into elections until the very end.
If we allowed eligible citizens to register to vote at any point, up to and including Election Day, we could bring more of communities’ voices to the table and increase voter participation. Democracy only truly functions for all people when every single voter is heard and every single ballot is counted.”
