voter bill of rights
Voter bills of rights are state-specific collections of voting rights and protections. While they vary significantly by state, they often include basic information about elections , including voter eligibility, voter privacy , voter rights to assistance, and voter rights to report illegal activity at the polls.
To see examples of current state voter bills of rights see:
- California Voter Bill of Rights
- Texas Voter Bill of Rights
- New York State Voter’s Bill of Rights and the New York Voting Rights Act
If you cannot find a voter bill of rights for a particular state online, consult with that secretary of state’s office.
