More options is better, and should lead to cost savings and greater participation over time. Do it!

I am signing this petition because during these trying times, individuals should have the option to vote online or via paper ballot. We are also a digital society and therefore, there is no reason not to have an online voting platform.

We want to make voting as meaningful and possible for as many voters as we can. Thanks.

Nice to have an option for those with mobility issues.

Access to voting increases the odds of votes reflecting the actual wishes of the public.

It makes so much sense in today's world of communications.

I don’t want mobility or concerns of virus to hinder a democratic vote.

We need to make it easier for everyone to vote and increase engagement with younger people.

It's an embarrassment not to have it. Even 'towns' do!

This is a no-brainer - let’s move into the 21st century. Online voting can be safe and secure.

We are currently in COVID lockdown and the possibility that we might continue on and off lockdowns has not yet, in my view, been eliminated.

I am a senior citizen and while I am in very good health at present, I may need flexibility in voting methods in the future for health reasons.

(Richmond Hill, 2021-06-05)

easy access and makes it time availability flexible

I'm signing because it's the right thing for the City to do.

(Richmond Hill, 2021-06-07)

I’m signing because now the COVID-19 is still there, safety is No. 1. Residents should have the right to vote online to protect themselves and other people.

The right thing to do

(Richmond hill, 2021-06-07)

This will allow people who are travelling or wintering elsewhere to vote closer to election dates.

(Richmond Hill, 2021-06-07)

It is a very good idea to have the option to be able to vote electronically.

(Richmond Hill, 2021-06-07)

I believe it should be easier for people to vote in municipal elections. Online voting will promote democracy in the York region.

In making online voting secure we also make participation greater. Many people cannot attend physical locations when voting.
