Secretary of State: Galvin vs Brensley. Who matches you?

1 / 5

Should voters have to show ID to vote at the polls?

Yes. The state should require voters to show ID, along with other steps to protect elections from fraud.

No. Requiring ID would keep some eligible voters, like older people who no longer drive, from voting.

2 / 5

Are Massachusetts' election safeguards strong enough as they are?

No. It has weak spots bad actors can exploit, and the laws need strengthening.

Yes. Strict procedures and audits give voters good reason to trust the count.

3 / 5

Where should the Secretary of State's office focus its legal work?

Using the office's lawyers to help enforce the voter-approved audit of the state Legislature.

Challenging federal actions in court that would limit voter registration and voting by mail.

4 / 5

How closely should the Secretary of State’s office regulate financial and investment companies?

Keep regulating the financial industry closely to protect consumers from fraud.

Regulate less, and move some of the office’s securities lawyers to elections and helping towns.

5 / 5

Should Massachusetts let people register and vote on Election Day?

Yes. Eligible people should be able to register and vote on the same day.

No. People can register all year; signing voters up at the polls puts too much on clerks and poll workers.
