SALT LAKE CITY (AP) - Voting will look a little different this November. States are turning to stadiums, drive-thrus and possibly even movie theaters as safe options for in-person polling places amid the coronavirus pandemic and fears about mail-in ballots failing to arrive in time to count.

The primary season brought voters to an outdoor wedding-style tent in Vermont and the state fairgrounds in Kentucky. The general election on Nov. 3 is expected to include voting at NBA arenas around the country, part of an agreement owners made with players to combat racial injustice.

Large venues and outdoor spaces allow for social distancing that helps prevent the spread of the virus, though there are questions about keeping people warm as the weather gets cold and the possibility that fewer traditional neighborhood polling places could lower voter turnout.

Election Day is expected to bring a surge in mail-in voting, but some people may feel more comfortable casting their ballots in person amid concerns about recent mail delays following a series of operational changes at the U.S. Postal Service and President Donald Trump stoking unfounded claims of voter fraud.

Several states conduct their elections almost entirely by mail, and mail-in voting is well established in others.

In June, Utah broke voter turnout records despite not opening traditional polling places because of the virus. In-person voting will be back in November, but rather than only using schools, churches and public buildings like usual, clerks also are permitted to set up drive-thru or outdoor polling places.

The family that owns the NBA's Utah Jazz also has a chain of movie theaters and offered three as voting sites in November.

One suburban Salt Lake City county ran a primary polling place where voters drove through an indoor convention center to pick up their ballots, completed them in their cars and then dropped them off in an outdoor parking area. Davis County Clerk Curtis Koch said the system will be in place for the general election, too.

Chad Berbert, a 46-year-old Republican, said he'll probably vote by mail in the fall, but he's glad officials are offering alternative voting methods.

"The more options for voting in terms of mechanisms or ways that people can exercise their franchise I think is helpful," said Berbert, who lives in Layton, Utah, and works at a management consulting firm.

Less than 1% of Utah voters chose in-person options in June, according to election officials. But in states where voters are less familiar with mail-in voting, unorthodox in-person options will provide a safe alternative, said Charles Stewart, a political science professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.

In Los Angeles, Dodger Stadium will be used as a vote center as part of a joint effort with More Than A Vote, a voting rights organization launched by LeBron James that's dedicated to maximizing Black turnout in November. Many Black voters - one of the Democratic Party's most important voting groups - are wary of voting by mail amid historical skepticism of a system that tried to keep Black people from the polls and worries that a mailed ballot won't get counted.

Several teams, including the Milwaukee Bucks, Detroit Pistons and Atlanta Hawks, had already committed their arenas to be voting sites prior to the NBA's announcement last week. Madison Square Garden also will be among the sports stadiums used.

The idea to use large spaces for in-person voting started in Kentucky, where Louisville's only option in the June primary was an exposition center at the state fairgrounds. Organizers carefully laid out chalk markings where voters could safely stand in line, though there were complications as voters struggled to find parking at the end of the day.

In Vermont, the tiny town of Lincoln voted during an August primary in a wedding-style tent, clerk Sally Ober said. Being outdoors in the summer gave Ober some unexpected brushes with nature. As she was setting up, she picked up a baby robin from the street and rescued a speckled fawn that got stuck on a fence. A toad also hopped through the tent during voting.

"It was very funny and cute and sweet that wildlife was involved with our voting day," Ober said.

The primary set turnout records, largely driven by mail-in voting. All active Vermont voters will get a mail-in ballot for the November election, and lawmakers also have allowed for outdoor and drive-thru voting systems.

In Lincoln, Ober is again preparing for people who want to vote in person. But in a state where below-freezing temperatures are normal for November, the tent likely won't make another appearance.

USPS delivery rates have been slowed. If your state allows it, consider dropping your ballot off at official lockboxes located at polling places or election offices. Voting early in 2020 is important!

# data[].attributes.body
Some states offer the option to vote in person early. Check your state to find out more.

In Boston: "Ahead of the Nov. 3 general election, the law expands the state’ 10-day early voting period to 14 days, from Saturday, Oct. 17 to Friday, Oct. 30. And whereas cities and towns previously had the option to hold early voting on the weekend, they are now required to make it available on the two Saturdays and Sundays during this year’s two-week period."

Some cities may offer drive through polling places (check link below), Boston unfortunately will not

Remember to bring: Identification (ID), face mask
Optional: face shield, gloves, hand sanitizer

Consider how the polling place may be different this year: modified layout, poll books or ID placed on table to minimize handling, asked to wear a mask in line or inside the polling place, polling place may be outside, asked to stand 6 ft apart in the polling queue and more; check  your local polling station to find out more

Presidential election: November 3rd. Check your local polling station for hours that day.

Select an upcoming election date, if there is more than one coming up in your area.

View the list of candidates that will be on your ballot. Ballotpedia includes comprehensive election information for the largest 100 cities by population, as well as all state legislative, statewide, and congressional races across the nation. Our coverage scope for local elections continues to grow, and you can use this tool to see what local elections we are covering in your area.

Click on your candidates to read their biography, view past election results, read their campaign themes and responses to our candidate survey, and more. We also provide race overviews if you want additional background information. Where the office names are linked, you can click to learn more about the race in general.

This sample ballot tool includes: All candidates in every upcoming election occurring within the 100 most-populated cities in the U.S., plus all federal and statewide elections, including ballot measures, nationwide. Additional local elections and ballot measures may also be included. Tribal elections are not included. Territorial elections are included.

Thank you for using Ballotpedia's sample ballot tool. We test the tool on an ongoing basis for accuracy. The note below discusses how we do that, and how you can help. ( Click here to read about the Eight Quality Benchmarks for a Sample Ballot Lookup Tool.)

Questions? Sample Ballot Frequently Asked Questions

Click here to read more about our testing methodology

Ballotpedia regularly tests our sample ballot's accuracy by looking up addresses on both it and the official sample ballot and comparing the lookup results from both tools. We strive for our sample ballot tool to be 100% accurate. This means that, for offices within our coverage scope, a person's sample ballot results should include every election that will appear on their actual ballot. It should also include every candidate running in those elections, except write-ins. Finally, it should not contain errors such as misspelled names, inaccurate incumbency labels, or incorrect political party affiliations.

If you are a user of our Sample Ballot, and you are experiencing problems using it or notice any accuracy issue of any kind at all, it would be a huge help to our future readers and users if you would send us a note telling us about the problem. Send the note to: editor@ballotpedia.org.

When your ballot arrives, read it carefully and follow the instructions to complete it and return it. Incomplete, incorrectly completed, or dirty/smudgy ballots may not be counted. Take special note of all instructions about how to mark your choices, such as whether you need to fill in an oval. Check to see if you need to add stamps to the envelope, and if so, how many.

Don't worry if you make a mistake. "If a requested ballot doesn't arrive in the voter's mailbox, or the voter ‘spoils’ the ballot by making a mistake, then voting in person on Election Day is a fail-safe"

VOTE EARLY!  Send in your ballot as early as you can, to avoid it arriving too late to be counted. USPS recommends returning your ballot at least one week before the election (before 10/27/20).

Be on the alert for a message that there’s a problem with your ballot. In Boston if your ballot is rejected You’ll be notified by your local election official along with the reason why, and you’ll be sent a new ballot if there is time. You also have the option of voting in person before 8 p.m. on Election Day.

13 questions about vote by mail in MA answered:

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
If you are a registered voter here in Massachusetts, chances are you've received a folded-up card in the mail in recent weeks with the words "Official 2020 Vote by Mail Application" emblazoned on it in big block lettering.

Yes. This year, due to public health concerns related to the COVID-19 pandemic, all Massachusetts voters can opt to vote by mail.

Earlier this month, Gov. Charlie Baker signed a law that extended this option to vote by mail to all Bay State voters for both the Sept. 1 state primary and the Nov. 3 general election. As part of that law, the secretary of the commonwealth was required to mail these applications for mail-in ballots to each of Massachusetts' 4.5 million registered voters.

Dozens of states, including Massachusetts, have long embraced mail-in voting for voters who meet certain criteria, and all voters have already had this option in five states - Colorado, Hawaii, Oregon, Utah and Washington.

This unprecedented change in how Massachusetts residents can vote left us with a number of questions about how it's all going to work. Here's what we've learned:

1. Do I have to vote by mail? Can I just ignore all of this and vote in person?

In-person voting will still be an option for anyone who doesn't want to vote by mail. Debra O'Malley with Secretary of the Commonwealth William Galvin's office noted that the state is also expanding early voting for the both the state primary and the general election in an attempt to reduce crowding at polls.

2. What do I do if I haven't received a vote-by-mail application?

Don't fret.

You can download and print out an application here. Or you can write a letter to your local election office requesting a ballot. If you go that route, the letter must include the address where you'd like your ballot mailed and your signature.

If you are not currently registered to vote, you also would not have received a vote-by-mail application. You still have time to register, and you can also do this by mail. You can also submit your vote-by-mail application form at the same time. More details about how to register to vote can be found here.

3. What's the deadline for applying for my vote-by-mail ballot?

There are separate deadlines for the state primary and the general election, but you can request ballots for both elections by filling out that single form.

Your application for a vote-by-mail ballot for the state primary must be received by 5 p.m. on Aug. 26. Your application for a vote-by-mail ballot for the November general election must be received by 5 p.m. on Oct. 28.

These are both "received by" deadlines and not "postmarked by" deadlines.

O'Malley noted that the U.S. Postal Service recommends you allow at least a week for your application to get to your local election office, a week for your ballot to be delivered to you, and a week for your completed ballot to get from you to your local election office. As such, she stressed that "it's best to apply earlier than the deadline."

If you are running short on time, you can deliver your application in person to the local election office at your town or city hall.

4. Who pays for postage?

The application form you received in the mail has a return card already addressed to your local election office and that classic "US Postage Paid" message where the stamp would go. So, all you need to do is fill it out and drop it in the mail.

Same goes for your ballot once you receive it. O'Malley said federal funds will cover the cost of postage for ballots this year.

5. Can I apply for my vote-by-mail ballot online or over the phone instead of filling out the form and mailing it back?

According to the secretary of the commonwealth's office, "all applications must be in writing." That means applying by phone is a no-go, but requests can be submitted via email.

The key to applying successfully via email (or by mail, for that matter) is your signature. It cannot be typed. You can fill out your form, sign it by hand, snap a photo, and attach that photo to an email. Or, you can fill out an online version of the form and sign it with a stylus, mouse or your finger, and attach an image of it to an email. That email should be sent to your local election office. You can find contact information for your local election, including the email address, here.

The Massachusetts law that expanded mail-in voting also allowed for the state to create an online application portal. O'Malley said the portal is under construction and will be ready by October.

That will be too late to apply to vote by mail in the primary, and given the state's emphasis on applying for your mail-in ballot early, it's perhaps prudent not to wait for that to launch.

You an also fax your application to your local election office.

6. If I would normally apply for an absentee ballot, should I still do that? Or does mail-in voting replace the absentee ballot this year?

Vote-by-mail ballots are available to all voters this year, but absentee ballots do still exist. According to O'Malley, absentee ballots may still be the option for voters who fit certain criteria, including those who:

are in the military

reside overseas

are incarcerated

need a family member to apply on their behalf

are admitted to a hospital or quarantined within one week of the election and need an emergency ballot delivered

More information about how to apply for an absentee ballot is available here.

7. If I apply for a vote-by-mail ballot, am I locked into voting by mail? Can I change my mind and vote in-person instead?

You do not have to vote by mail if you apply for and receive a vote-by-mail ballot.

If your local election office has not received and validated your mail-in ballot by Election Day - Sept. 1 for the primary and Nov. 3 for the general election - you can still vote in person.

Also, in the event that you submit a vote-by-mail ballot and it is deemed invalid (more on that later), you can also vote in-person on Election Day.

Reader Question: I've applied to vote by mail. When should I expect to receive my ballot?

Asked by multiple readers

For the primary, ballots have already been going out for weeks. Your local election office handles mailing it to you.

"As soon as the ballots and envelopes are all ready, clerks begin mailing ballots to those who have already applied," O'Malley said.

"They mail as many as they can each day, until all ballots have gone out," she continued. "And then they continue mailing ballots on a rolling basis as new applications arrive."

For the November election, ballots are expected to begin being mailed out in late September/early October.

8. What do I do if I lose or damage my mail-in ballot once I receive it? Can I get another one?

You can. But it will take some time.

O'Malley said that you can return a damaged ballot to your local election office with a note indicating that you are "spoiling your ballot" and need a new one sent to you.

Reader Question: The mail-in ballots don't include instructions for whether to use pencil or pen (blue or black). Does it matter?

Asked by Mary Lou Beasley

Black ink is preferred. That's what the tabulating machines "see" the best. That said, any writing implement can be used.

"If the tabulator can't read a ballot, it will reject it, so it can be counted by hand," O'Malley said. "As long as the intent of the voter can be determined, the ballot will be counted."

9. I'm worried my vote won't be counted if I vote by mail. What might render my mail-in ballot invalid in Massachusetts?

Your ballot will be rejected if:

You missed the deadline to submit your ballot.

For the Sept. 1 primary, any ballot received after 8 p.m. on Sept. 1 will not be counted. For the Nov. 3 election, ballots must be postmarked no later than Nov. 3. But even if it is postmarked on or before Election Day, if it is received after 5 p.m. on Nov. 6, it will be rejected. If you are worried that you are running short on time, you can hand deliver your ballot to your local election office.

Your ballot envelope is not signed.

"The most important thing to do is remember to sign your ballot envelope," O'Malley said. "That signature must be matched against your signature on file. If it is missing, your ballot will be rejected and a new one will be sent to you if there is time."

You have already voted in person.

10. If I vote by mail, will I receive confirmation that my vote was counted?

According to O'Malley, all accepted ballots will be counted. You won't be notified that your vote has been tallied, but you will be if your ballot is not accepted. O'Malley said that if time permits, a new ballot will be sent to you. You can also vote in person if your mail-in ballot has not been accepted by Election Day.

You can proactively confirm that your mail-in ballot was accepted at www.TrackMyBallotMA.com.

Reader Question: Can I verify how I signed my voter registration? I don't usually use my middle initial when I sign other documents things, but might have on my registration.

Asked by Rene Morneau in Beverly, MA

Your signature is an important part of the vote-by-mail process, as it is required on both your application and your completed ballot. Completed ballots without a signature will be rejected.

Crucially, though, the signature on your ballot is checked for validity against the signature on your application - not your voter registration. You just need to be sure to sign your application and completed ballot the same way.

"Voters do not need to worry about older signatures on their voter registration," said O'Malley, adding that "ballots will not be rejected for minor differences in signatures."

11. What mechanisms are in place to ensure people don't accidentally - or intentionally - vote by mail and then again in person?

"Once a ballot reaches a local election office, the clerk must check the ballot envelope to make sure it is signed by the voter. As long as the ballot envelope is properly completed, the voter is then checked off on the voter list that will be used during early voting and at the polling places on Election Day, so the voter will not be able to vote again," O'Malley said.

12. Will I have to show an ID with my mail-in ballot?

You might. According to O'Malley, federal law requires "first-time voters to show ID if they registered to vote by mail and their identity has not been confirmed."

So, some voters who are voting for the first time in Massachusetts may be asked to submit ID with their ballots, just as they'd be asked to show ID at their polling places if they voted in person.

This does not have to be a photo ID. A utility bill, bank statement, pay stub or lease will suffice, as will another official document containing your name and address. O'Malley said any voter required to submit an ID will receive a letter with their ballot explaining this.

13. How will officials tabulate the results? What is the expected time frame for this?

All ballots, whether filled out in-person or submitted by mail, get fed into the ballot box. About five dozen smaller Massachusetts municipalities still count votes by hand. In most cities and towns, votes are processed through an optical scan machine.

O'Malley noted that any vote that is processed -in person or by mail - is required to happen "in full view of the public."

In general, mail-in ballots are processed at the polling location where each voter would have cast an in-person ballot. Poll workers are required to announce to anyone present when they are processing mail-in ballots at a polling location.

Some municipalities may choose to establish a central processing facility for mail-in ballots. A list of all central processing facilities will be posted on the state's website prior to Election Day. Like any other polling location, these central processing facilities must be open to the public while they are processing votes.

Even in towns that do establish a central processing location, any mail-in ballot recieved on Election Day must be processed at the polling location instead. This is to eliminate the possibilty that a person could vote both in-person and by mail on Election Day.

For the primary, O'Malley said the tallying process "may go later into the night ... because of the processing time for ballots returned by mail at the last minute."

In order to ease this burden, local election officials will have the option this year to start inserting received ballots into ballot boxes prior to the day of the election, O'Malley said, noting that while they can process the ballots, they cannot count them or announce results until Election Day.

She also noted that "this tabulation will need to be publicly announced beforehand and will be open to public observation," just as it would be on Election Day.

The same will be true for the general election, though unlike the primary, ballots can still arrive after Election Day. So ballot counting in the general election will continue after Nov. 3.

"As usual, clerks will be able to announce unofficial results on election night for all ballots received by Election Day," O'Malley said, "but those results may come later in the evening than usual."

By state law, official primary election results must be certified by local election officials within four days of the election. For the November general election, local election officials must certify the results within 15 days of Election Day.

"

This is the most important election in the history of our country. There has never been such a difference between two parties, or two individuals, in ideology, philosophy, or vision than there is right now. Our opponents believe that America is a depraved nation. We want our sons and daughters to know the truth: America is the greatest and most exceptional nation in the history of the world! Our country wasn't built by cancel culture, speech codes, and soul-crushing conformity. We are not a nation of timid spirits. We are a nation of fierce, proud, and independent American Patriots.

"

Donald Trump is the 45th and current president of the United States. Former Vice President Joe Biden defeated Trump in the 2020 presidential election on November 3, 2020. Biden received 306 electoral votes, while Trump received 232.

Trump assumed office on January 20, 2017, and filed to run for re-election on the same day. He crossed the delegate threshold necessary to win the Republican nomination-1,276 delegates-on March 17, 2020. He was formally nominated at the Republican National Convention on August 24, 2020.

Trump's running mate was Vice President Mike Pence.

Trump's re-election campaign focused on the economy, jobs, immigration, and foreign policy. He described his platform, which he named America First, during his inaugural address: "Every decision on trade, on taxes, on immigration, on foreign affairs, will be made to benefit American workers and American families. We must protect our borders from the ravages of other countries making our products, stealing our companies, and destroying our jobs."

Key policy initiatives during Trump's first term included the United States withdrawing from the Iran nuclear deal, the passage of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 and First Step Act in 2018, reducing the size of the ISIS caliphate, and establishing the Space Force as an independent military branch. Trump made more than 200 federal judicial appointments, including three U.S. Supreme Court justices.

Policy positions

The following policy positions were compiled from the candidate's official campaign website, editorials, speeches, and interviews.

Immigration

Donald Trump's campaign website says, "President Trump has enforced immigration laws to protect American communities and American jobs. Upon entering office, President Trump called on Congress to fully fund a wall along the Southern border, to close legal loopholes that enable illegal immigration, to end chain migration, and to eliminate the visa lottery program. Under President Trump's leadership, the Department of Homeland Security took action to wind down the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program in an orderly fashion, following the assessment of the Department of Justice (DOJ) that DACA lacks legal authorization. The Department of Homeland Security launched the office of Victims of Immigration Crime Engagement (VOICE). The President released his immigration reform proposal which calls for the transition to a merit-based immigration plan."

Healthcare

Donald Trump's campaign website says, "President Trump has worked to improve access to affordable quality health care. As part of the landmark Tax Cuts and Jobs Act President Trump repealed the individual mandate, which forced people to buy expensive insurance and taxed those who couldn't afford it. President Trump signed a six-year extension of CHIP to fund healthcare for 9 million. President Trump has mobilized his entire administration to address drug addiction and opioid abuse by declaring the opioid crisis a nationwide public health emergency."

Energy and environmental issues

Donald Trump's campaign website says that "President Trump has approved the infrastructure and provided the resources needed to unleash oil and gas production in the U.S. The administration approved the Keystone XL and Dakota Access pipelines, supporting an estimated total of 42,000 jobs and $2 billion in wages. President Trump rescinded President Obama's costly Clean Power Plan and instead has proposed the Affordable Clean Energy Rule. In addition to the Clean Power Plan, the Trump administration has rescinded many costly Obama-Era regulations."

Trade

Donald Trump's campaign website says, "President Trump has kept his promise to crack down on trade cheaters and to promote fairer and equal trade for all Americans. In his first year in office, President Trump took action to protect America's critical steel and aluminum industries, which were harmed by unfair trade practices and global excess capacity. One of President Trump's first actions was to withdraw the United States from the Trans-Pacific Partnership, advancing his agenda to protect American workers. The Trump Administration successfully litigated WTO disputes targeting unfair trade practices and protected our right to enact fair trade laws."

Economy

Donald Trump's campaign website says, "President Trump is unleashing economic growth and jobs. Since his election, the Trump administration's pro-growth policies have generated 6 million new jobs, the unemployment rate has fallen to its lowest point in 50 years, and wages have grown at more than 3% for 10 months in a row. Under President Trump's leadership, Congress passed historic tax cuts and relief for hard-working Americans. The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. U.S. Gross Domestic Product (GDP) growth has soared under President Trump, topping 3% in 4 quarters under his administration."

Education

Donald Trump's campaign website says, "President Trump's proposed budgets have made school choice a priority. The Trump Administration successfully implemented the Every Student Succeeds Act (ESSA) to empower states with the flexibility they need to educate their students. The Trump Administration implemented the year-round distribution of Pell grants, instead of limiting these grants to the spring and fall semesters. The Trump Administration brought in financial experts to modernize the way FSA offers and services student loans."

Gun regulation

Donald Trump's campaign website says, "The Second Amendment to our Constitution is clear. The right of the people to keep and bear Arms shall not be infringed upon. Gun and magazine bans are a total failure. The right of self-defense doesn't stop at the end of your driveway. That's why I have a concealed carry permit and why tens of millions of Americans do too. That permit should be valid in all 50 states."

Criminal justice

Donald Trump's campaign website says, "President Donald J. Trump and the Department of Justice are working with local law enforcement to protect American communities. The Department of Justice announced more than $98 million in grant funding through the Office of Community Oriented Policing Services COPS Hiring Program to allow 802 additional full-time law enforcement officers. The Trump Administration expanded Project Safe Neighborhoods to encourage U.S. Attorney's to work with communities to develop customized crime reduction strategies. The Department of Justice returned to their longstanding charging policy for federal prosecutors, trusting them once again to charge the most serious, readily provable offense."

Foreign policy

Donald Trump's campaign website says, "President Trump has gone around the globe working to restore America's prominence in global diplomacy. South Korea and Japan pledged to build closer defense collaboration with the United States, and the President underscored the commitment of the United States to providing advanced military equipment. In Saudi Arabia, President Trump pushed for a coalition of nations to confront Iran and attended the opening of the Global Center for Combating Extremist Ideology. President Trump followed through on his promise and recognized Jerusalem as the capital of the State of Israel and directed the relocation of the U.S. Embassy. Under President Trump, the United States has worked tirelessly to combat extremism and stick up for religious minorities."

Impeachment

In a statement before the press, Donald Trump said, "They took nothing and brought me to a final vote of impeachment. That's a very ugly word to me. It's a very dark word. Very ugly. They took nothing. They took a phone call that was a totally appropriate call-I call it a perfect call because it was-and they brought me to the final stages of impeachment, but now we have that gorgeous word. I never thought a word would sound so good. It's called total acquittal. Total acquittal."

Labor

Donald Trump's campaign website does not include a statement about labor.

Abortion

Donald Trump's campaign website says, "The President has kept the promises he made in 2016 to the pro-life community and has delivered unprecedented victories for the pro-life movement: He took executive action to stop taxpayer money from flowing to Planned Parenthood, the largest abortion business in the country. He reinstated and expanded the ban on Americans' tax dollars paying for abortions in foreign countries. He is standing with the Catholic nuns known as the Little Sisters of the Poor, defending them from Obama-era regulations forcing them to violate their religious beliefs by providing health insurance that covers abortifacients."

Supreme Court vacancy

Donald Trump said he would nominate a woman to replace Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg by September 26, 2020. He tweeted, "We were put in this position of power and importance to make decisions for the people who so proudly elected us, the most important of which has long been considered to be the selection of United States Supreme Court Justices. We have this obligation, without delay!"

Response to the coronavirus pandemic

See also: Documenting America's Path to Recovery

On August 10, 2020, the White House released a document outlining Trump's response to the coronavirus pandemic. It listed the following key takeaways:

"

Took early action to cut off travel from China

Built the world's leading testing system from nothing

Enacted mitigation measures to slow the spread

Mobilized public and private sectors to secure needed supplies

Took action to protect vulnerable Americans

Launched effort to deliver a vaccine and therapeutics in record time

Provided support to workers and businesses

Paved way for reopening to get America working again

Surged resources to hot spots as they arose

Confronted China as origin of the virus while Democrats and media cowered

"

This document also provided a list of Trump's comments, distribution of resources, and executive actions related to the coronavirus pandemic:

"

While Democrats were focused on their impeachment sham, President Trump took swift and decisive action to stop travel from China in January and enhanced airport screenings to help stop cases from coming into the United States as long as possible.

In his February 4th State of the Union address, President Trump pledged to "take all necessary steps to safeguard our citizens from the virus," while the Democrats' response made not a single mention of the virus or even the threat of China.

In order to accurately trace and combat this virus, President Trump set out to build the world's best testing system, and that's exactly what he did.

We have already conducted more than 65 million tests, far outpacing any other country.

President Trump released guidance recommending mitigation measures critical to slowing the spread of the virus, and the American people stepped up to do their part.

Dr. Fauci and Dr. Birx have attested to the fact that President Trump took action as soon as the data was presented to him.

The President directed his Administration to secure and distribute needed medical supplies to states in need - resulting in billions of PPE delivered so far.

At the President's urging, private companies shifted production to supplying masks, ventilators, hand sanitizer, testing supplies, and more.

President Trump has acted under the Defense Production Act more than 30 times to ensure we have the supplies we need.

When we faced a potentially catastrophic shortage of ventilators, President Trump took action to produce 100,000 ventilators and ensure no patient who needs one goes without a ventilator.

The Administration quickly established guidelines for nursing homes and expanded telehealth opportunities to protect our vulnerable seniors.

The President took action to ensure that uninsured Americans are able to get the COVID-19 care and testing they need.

President Trump directed Secretary Carson to focus the White House Opportunity and Revitalization Council on underserved communities impacted by COVID-19.

The Administration is investing approximately $2 billion in community health centers, helping their 28 million patients in medically underserved areas receive the care and testing they need.

President Trump understood early on that in order to defeat this virus once and for all and protect Americans, we need a vaccine and therapeutics.

President Trump revolutionized the clinical trial process to ensure Americans get a safe vaccine as quickly as possible, by providing unprecedented investments in leading vaccine candidates to simultaneously produce them as they are tested and developed.

Thanks to President Trump's efforts, coronavirus vaccine trials have progressed at record speeds, with multiple candidates already in or near the final stage of clinical trials.

The President negotiated and launched the Paycheck Protection Program - helping save 51 million American jobs.

President Trump secured direct payments to help the countless Americans who are hurting due to the pandemic.

President Trump took executive action to give tax relief to workers, ensure unemployment benefits for those out of work, prevent families from losing their homes to eviction or foreclosure, and provide student debt relief for Americans already hurting due to the virus.

As we built out our critical medical supplies, flattened the curve, and rapidly expanded testing, states across the country were able to safely move towards reopening.

President Trump ensured they had the data and resources to reopen on the correct timeframe.

The President has provided support to states facing new emergences of the virus, including surging testing sites, deploying medical personnel, and advising on mitigation strategies.

President Trump has rightly called out China's handling of the virus for refusing to be transparent and failing to contain the virus before it spread.

The President held the WHO accountable for its egregious bias towards China that jeopardizes the safety of Americans.

"

Ballot access

See also: Ballot access for presidential candidates

In order to get on the ballot, a candidate for president of the United States must meet a variety of complex, state-specific filing requirements and deadlines. These regulations, known as ballot access laws, determine whether a candidate or party will appear on an election ballot. These laws are set at the state level. A presidential candidate must prepare to meet ballot access requirements well in advance of primaries, caucuses, and the general election.

There are three basic methods by which an individual may become a candidate for president of the United States.

1. An individual can seek the nomination of a political party. Presidential nominees are selected by delegates at national nominating conventions. Individual states conduct caucuses or primary elections to determine which delegates will be sent to the national convention.

2. An individual can run as an independent. Independent presidential candidates typically must petition each state to have their names printed on the general election ballot.

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
"

We can't wait on Trump, the racist incompetent, or Biden, the neoliberal hawk, to fight for the needs of the working-class. We need our own political voice! We need our own independent power! We need an #EcosocialistGreenNewDeal!

"

Howie Hawkins is the 2020 Green Party presidential nominee. He clinched the nomination on June 21, 2020, after winning more than 176 delegates across Green Party primaries and caucuses. He was formally nominated at the Green Party National Convention on July 11, 2020. His running mate is veteran and labor activist Angela Nicole Walker.

The centerpiece of Hawkins' campaign is his proposal for an ecosocialist Green New Deal, which includes an economic and environmental program.

His campaign website describes the two programs: "The Economic Bill of Rights will finally fulfill President Roosevelt's 1944 call upon Congress to develop programs to secure basic economic human rights for all. The Green Economy Reconstruction Program will not only build a 100% clean energy system by 2030, but will reconstruct all economic sectors for ecological sustainability, from agriculture and manufacturing to housing and transportation."

Hawkins was the Green Party nominee for governor of New York in 2010, 2014, and 2018.

This section features five recent news stories about Hawkins and his presidential campaign. For a complete timeline of Hawkins' campaign activity, click here.

September 17, 2020: The Pennsylvania Supreme Court ruled that Hawkins could not appear on the ballot due to errors in a placeholder Green candidate's nomination.

September 14, 2020: The Wisconsin Supreme Court ruled that Hawkins would remain off the state ballot.

September 1, 2020: Hawkins said he planned to challenge the Wisconsin Election Commission's decision to reject his petition for ballot access.

August 31, 2020: The Free and Equal Elections Foundation interviewed Hawkins about his campaign and third parties.

August 25, 2020: Hawkins held a livestream with Jake Tonkel, a San Jose City Council candidate.

August 14, 2020: In an interview with The Guardian, Hawkins said he would consider receiving 5% of the vote a big victory. "That qualifies us for a public campaign financing grant for the general election in 2024 for president. If we got to 5% there'd be about $20m at least waiting for our presidential ticket in 2024, which would be a jump up."

Hawkins was born in San Francisco, California, in 1952. He attended Dartmouth College but did not earn a degree. After being drafted, Hawkins enlisted in the Marine Corps in 1972. He was not ordered to active duty and organized against the Vietnam War.

For the next two decades, Hawkins worked in construction in New England. In the 1990s, he developed cooperatives for CommonWorks. He later loaded trucks for UPS.

Hawkins became active in the Green Party from its first national meeting in 1984. He also co-founded the anti-nuclear organization Clamshell Alliance in 1976 and joined the Vietnam Veterans Against the War and American Legion Dunbar Post 1642.

Cumulatively, Hawkins ran for local office in Syracuse and governor of New York as a Green candidate more than 20 times.

Policy positions

The following policy positions were compiled from the candidate's official campaign website, editorials, speeches, and interviews.

Immigration

Howie Hawkins' campaign website says, "The inhumanity of US immigration policy came to broad public attention in 2018 with the news coverage of forced separations of young children from their families on the southern US border. These crimes against humanity only underscored the long-standing brutality of US immigration policy, which has treated people from Mexico and Central America in particular as cheap labor to be imported or deported based on US labor demand, like apartheid South Africa once used Bantustans."

His website continues, "We will demand open borders where movement between nations is free, like it is in the European Union. International borders should be authentic fair-trade zones where people are free to travel across borders for work, shopping, or recreation. The status of undocumented immigrants should be legalized and provide a timely path to citizenship. People crossing international borders would be required to present their identification at a border crossing. Only people wanted for criminal charges or terrorist organization affiliation would be detained. People who cross without checking in at a border crossing would also be detained and checked at an official border crossing. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Customs and Border Protection (BPE) should be abolished and replaced with a new immigration agency with personnel committed to the open borders policy."

Healthcare

Howie Hawkins' campaign website says, "A community-controlled national health service, delivering services largely through publicly owned clinics and hospitals employing salaried staff, and governed by a federation of locally-elected boards, will provide better accountability and cost control than a top-down Medicare-like national health insurance system paying mostly private providers to deliver health services."

Energy and environmental issues

Howie Hawkins' campaign website says, "We will never reverse pending planetary environmental collapse as long as we have a capitalist economy where competition for profits drives the blind, relentless growth that is consuming the environment, heating up the planet, and destroying ecological foundations of human civilization."

Trade

Howie Hawkins' campaign website says, "International borders should be authentic fair-trade zones where people are free to travel across borders for work, shopping, recreation, and residence."

Economy

Howie Hawkins' campaign website says, "We will never reverse extreme and growing economic inequality as long as capitalists exploit workers for profit and extract more unearned income from the economy as rent and interest. Capitalists pay workers a fixed wage and take the rest of the value workers' labor creates as profit. Capitalists take more unearned income as rent and interest in excess of the costs of production due to their exclusive ownership of access to resources, such as land sites, natural resources, intellectual property, and monopolies."

Education

Howie Hawkins' campaign website says, "First, educational policy should be made primarily by teachers and parents through locally elected school boards. Mayoral and state control of schools have become a way of closing public schools and imposing educational policies, especially charter school privatization, from the top down. Local parents and teachers have more interest in good local schools than top-down administrators."

His website continues, "Second, we must end high-stakes testing, which has reduced education to teaching to the test. It punishes students, teachers, and schools in high-poverty school districts simply for being poor. The punishment is often school closures or privatization into charters. High-stakes testing is the front edge of the charter school privatization agenda. High-stakes testing takes away from the many other qualities that should be developed by an education, including intellectual self-confidence, creativity, critical thinking, problem solving, teamwork, and tolerance."

Gun regulation

Howie Hawkins' campaign website lists some of the following gun regulation policies: "Ban and buy back military assault weapons, high-capacity magazines, and bump stocks. Universal background checks for gun and ammunition buyers, including closing the loophole for private sales and sales at gun shows, with sales and background check records maintained indefinitely in a central registry. Require all gun owners to pass a gun safety test, a visual test, and be licensed by a government agency, similar to the requirements for obtaining a driver's license. Institute a 28-day waiting period after license application before firearms can be possessed. Expand the prohibition on the purchase and possession of guns by people convicted of misdemeanor domestic violence crimes to include people convicted of menacing, assault, or unlawful imprisonment."

Criminal justice

Howie Hawkins' campaign website lists the following positions on criminal and civil justice: "Monitor and Prosecute White Racist Terrorists. Federal Investigations of Local Police Misconduct. Community Control of the Police. End Mass Incarceration-Treat Drug Abuse as a Health Problem, Not a Criminal Problem. Legalize Marijuana. Decriminalize Personal Possession of Hard Drugs. Drug Treatment on Demand. Decriminalize Sex Work. Fight Corporate Crime. End Warrantless Mass Surveillance. Pardon Whistle Blowers and Political Prisoners

Foreign policy

Howie Hawkins' campaign website says, "I will also center our ecosocialist Green New Deal on the third existential threat: nuclear war. Capitalism's competitive economic structure yields a conflict-ridden international system that generates endless wars. Sooner or later, wars will lead to nuclear annihilation if we don't change the system and abolish nuclear weapons. An enduring peace requires replacing capitalism with ecosocialism-capitalism's nationalistic competitive militarism with ecosocialism's international cooperative security. We will call for deep US military spending cuts and converting to a defensive military posture from today's global military empire of over 800 foreign military bases. The savings will be a peace dividend to reinvest in a Global Green New Deal for economic human rights, clean energy, and regenerative agriculture around the world. The United States can make friends instead of enemies by using its wealth to be the world's humanitarian superpower instead of its imperialist superpower. We will call for a recommitment to the recently abandoned arms treaties and to vigorous new negotiations for further reductions toward complete nuclear disarmament and for scaling back the world's militaries to strictly defensive forces. We will oppose US military intervention for regime change and speak up for human rights wherever they are violated."

Impeachment

Howie Hawkins' campaign website says, "From the moment Trump took office, he has been receiving payments from foreign and domestic governments and lobbyists at his properties in violation of the foreign and domestic emoluments clauses of the Constitution. He is the unindicted co-conspirator in the felony hush-money campaign finance case where his underling, Michael Cohen, was convicted and is now serving time. Trump unlawfully told border agents and Homeland Security officials to break immigration laws and defy judicial orders concerning border crossings, asylum seekers, and child separations. He told a group of police officers to be more violent with suspects and the cops cheered him. He told American Indian leaders to break laws to frack and drill for oil and gas on their lands in violation of federal laws. We could go describing many other high crimes and misdemeanors or the 29 current investigations that prosecutors and Congress are finally doing on Trump's 40-year rap sheet of alleged crimes that encompass everything from multiple sexual assaults to a multitude of corporate crimes, including tax evasion, bank fraud, insurance fraud, money laundering, and wage theft. The grounds for impeaching Trump are a target-rich environment."

Abortion

Howie Hawkins' campaign website says, "I support the legal framework established in the Roe v. Wade decision. During the first trimester, it is up to the pregnant woman to decide whether to get an abortion. During the second trimester laws can only regulate abortion to protect the health of the mother. During the third trimester, or after fetal viability pursuant to Planned Parenthood v. Casey (1992), laws can restrict or prohibit abortions except in cases where it was necessary to protect the mother's health. This framework should be codified into federal law by an act of Congress. I oppose targeted regulation of abortion clinics and providers through laws or policies that go beyond what is necessary to ensure patients' safety. I support laws that allow physicians as well as non-physician health professionals, including physicians' assistants, nurse practitioners, and certified nurse midwives, to perform abortion procedures.

Expect the results to come differently this year

# data[].attributes.body
We probably won’t know results on election night, since it just takes longer to count mailed ballots. At least 17 states, including key swing states such as Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania, don’t allow ballots to be counted until Election Day.

Election officials stress that delays are a sign that they are taking time to get the vote count right. “This is not a speed game,” Iowa Secretary of State Paul Pate (R) told The Fix in April. “This is going to be an integrity and safety game.”

# data[].attributes.body
(1) Make sure you are registered to vote! Even if you have registered, double check online. It only takes a few seconds.
(2) If voting by mail or ballot box drop, follow the instructions exactly when filling out your ballot. Ballots completed incorrectly are not counted. If your state asks for a signature, match it to whatever signature the state has on file for you (eg. ID signature). This is how some states verify your ballot. Some states will ask for 1 to 2 witnesses to also sign.
(3) Return your ballot ASAP, by mail or by ballot box. This year the mail delivery system is slower than usual and some states will not accept mail in ballots past 11/3/20. Return your ballot as soon as you receive it (or as soon as you can).  USPS recommends returning your ballot at least one week before the election (before 10/27/20).
(4) Voting early (in person) is an option in some states! "Texas is one of seven states that isn’t allowing absentee voting over concerns about coronavirus. But it has expanded early voting for in-person locations by six more days. Check to see if your state allows this" https://www.washingtonpost.com/politics/2020/08/17/how-to-make-sure-your-vote-is-counted/
