Let people apply for a postal vote online
Currently people have to print out, fill in, and send back a form in order to apply for a postal vote (https://www.electoralcommission.org.uk/i-am-a/voter/voting-person-post-or-proxy/voting-post).
We want the Government to let voters complete the same form online.
Allowing people to apply for a postal vote online will lead to more people who want a postal vote being able to get one, and fewer people attending polling stations in person. This will significantly reduce the risk of increasing Covid-19 transmission as a result of the elections.
The Government must do all it can to ensure Free and Fair Elections given the circumstnaces, and making it easier for people to vote safely in this way should be top of the list.
