On March 24, Utah Governor Gary Herbert signed HB 70, which repeals the straight-ticket device.
Now the only states that have the device are Alabama, Indiana, Kentucky, Michigan, Oklahoma, and South Carolina.
Utah HB 70 is the first bill in the nation that has been signed into law in 2020, that helps minor party and independent candidates.
How much falloff pct in the 2 groups of States for lower partisan offices ???
Leave it to the government of getting rid of an easy way to vote and driving away voters, especially the elderly.
Straight ticket voting promotes mindlessness.
SPV has its roots in the day when union bosses wanted to control that votes were cast as directed if the voter wanted to keep his/her job. Congrats to Utah.
