Maine To Implement Online Voter Registration

July 27, 2021

Soon enough, people will be able to register to vote online in Maine.

The state’s Democratic governor, Janet Mills, signed a bill that will create a “secure online portal” for people to use to register, as The Associated Press reports.

The law was Democratic state representative Teresa Pierce’s idea. She told The Associated Press that it will “modernize our voter registration system while prioritizing accessibility and security.”

Maine’s’s Department of the Secretary of State is supposed to implement the new law.

The Commonwealth of Massachusetts already has an online voter registration system. It is on the Secretary of the Commonwealth’s web site.
