Do not close over half of Omaha's polling places.


Do not close over half of Omaha's polling places.
The Issue
Open and accessible polls are essential to a representative democracy. Election Commissioner Phipp's decision resulted in disproportionately closing more polling locations in low income areas of Omaha where citizens do not have their own personal transportation. You can find more information here and here.
Election Commissioner Phipp's CAN reverse this course of action. He just chooses not to. His decision was made without ANY public input or notice until he stated it was "too late." Demand Election Commissioner Phipps make our elections accessible by calling (402) 444 - 8683.
