For esssay #2, the research question I chose is “how has voting been a difficult process for young American citizens”? The sources I found so far demonsartes the difficult process of voting for teens that aren’t educated enough to vote as well as not old enough to have the ability to use their voice. The article emphasized how and when we vote in America had always been a complicated process for young individuals. To vote today in the United States, individuals must be an American citizen and at least 18 years old during voting day, the first Tuesday of November. To register how to vote claims to be an easy process; voters can follow clear instructions and still result in insignificant changes at the last minute. Voter suppression demonstrates many methods used to interfere with the final vote results. In another article, the author Drew Desilver, describes that one of the solutions for citizens to vote is by having all states to enable mail-in voting. The research data shows more than half of the voters in the most recent election came primary from the mail-in ballots, this proves that mail-in voting is one of the effective ways for citizens to use their voice and exercise their rights. What is missing in my reaseach is more sources because I need 4 article and 3 social media. 

Mail-in voting became much more common in 2020 primaries as COVID-19 spread
