Brewer speaks to PPH about absentee voting
Mark Brewer, professor of political science at the University of Maine, spoke to the Portland Press Herald about Maine Republicans embracing absentee voting as key to winning special elections. “I’m sure that in areas where it is feasible that Republicans will continue to try and limit/eliminate absentee and early voting, but in places where these are entrenched and not going anywhere, e.g. Maine, they really have no choice but to try and use absentee and early voting to their advantage. If you can’t change the rule, you have to try and use the existing rules to your fullest advantage,” Brewer said. Yahoo! News shared the PPH report.
