"Vote by Mail in Jail" T-Shirt, 2020
01
Artifact Overview
Many incarcerated people are eligible to vote, but logistical challenges and misinformation often lead to a lack of action. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, visitation to prison facilities was blocked, complicating the ability for people in jail to register to vote. Grassroots efforts were made to increase awareness and access to allow incarcerated people to receive and send mail-in ballots.
