TELL YOUR STORY ABOUT VOTING IN NON-TRIBAL ELECTIONS
We want to hear about your experience in voter registration and voting in federal, state, and local (non-tribal) elections.
Issues to be addressed include whether Native voters have opportunities in their communities that are equal to those of
non-Natives or if they experience discrimination in:
• Location of voter registration
• Location of in-person voting
• Voter identification requirements
• Vote-by-mail
• Early voting
• Poll worker opportunities
• Redistricting
• Treatment at the polls
• Language barriers
• Other discrimination
Witnesses will include tribal leaders, advocates, and voters. If you would like to testify or want more information, please
contact Patty Ferguson-Bohnee at indianlegalclinic@asu.edu.
