Connecticut Sen. Chris Murphy says that it will be difficult for states to switch to mail-in voting in time for the presidential election in November.
WASHINGTON – A U.S. senator who has been at the forefront of efforts to deal with the coronavirus epidemic says he is"very worried" that many states across the country will be unable to switch to mail-in voting in time for the November elections. That could potentially complicate the ability of state and local officials to conduct the fall elections if the public is still worried about the coronavirus.
It’s not possible to implement a change in the rules for the Connecticut primary, which was pushed back from its originally scheduled date of April 28 to June 2, Murphy said. But he also said the state is looking into what’s possible ahead of the Nov. 3 general election. Congress allocated $400 million in the emergency rescue package that the House was set to vote on Friday, and that money can be used by states to strengthen their ability to hold an election in the fall amidst an ongoing pandemic, if social distancing remains of paramount importance.President Trump’s top health advisers have said this week that Americans should be prepared for a second wave of infections in the fall.
