Tuesday is Election Day and Mainers will be faced with two important referendum questions when they head to the polls.
Two referendum questions are being voted on across the state of Maine on Tuesday.Question 1 on the statewide ballot asks voters if they want to make changes to election laws in Maine, including adding a requirement to show photo identification in order to vote.
Here's a recap of the proposals to require photo ID and make changes to absentee voting, and to put in place a red flag law.
Question 1 would require Mainers to present a valid state ID or driver’s license to vote, limit the number of "drop" boxes for ballots and restrict the state's absentee mail balloting process.
A statewide ballot question Tuesday asks residents if they want to build on the state’s yellow flag law, which allows police officers to initiate a process to keep someone away from firearms. Approval would add Maine to more than 20 states that have a red flag law empowering family members to take the same step.
An unguarded election process is a threat to all of us. If only a few votes make the difference in the choosing of one candidate over another, as is often the case, then every vote is critical to ensure an accurate and secure election.
The ballot measure would not allow for use of tribal IDs when voting, creating 'incongruency' in the law, according to Maine's Secretary of State.
