‘Disenfranchised and demobilized’: Native Americans face ballot box barriers in Arizona
Navajo Nation sued Apache county for a second time over alleged scramble to cure mail-in ballots – on top of other systemic hurdles like long lines and translation issues
Across America, it is altogether too hard for Native Americans to vote. They often must go off-reservation and travel outrageous distances to reach voting services. Many do not have home addresses or mail delivery, making registering and receiving a ballot difficult, if not impossible. Native Americans still face racial discrimination and hostilities when casting their ballots. NARF, in collaboration with Native American advocates across the country, have extensively documented these barriers and are fighting every day against this discrimination.
