Issues

Voter suppression: John Edwards is a long-time opponent of voter-suppression and plans to do everything possible to eliminate it in 2008.

Touch-screen voting:  John Edwards is the first (and currently only) major presidential candidate to call for a ban on touch-screen voting.  Electronic touch-screen voting is a process that makes it difficult to ensure that every vote is properly counted.  It should be eliminated.

Voting Rights For Citizens of Washington D.C.:  John Edwards has been a long-time advocate of giving D.C. voters representation in Congress.  While in the Senate, he was a co-sponsor of the No Taxation Without Representation Act, which would give D.C. citizens voting representation in the Senate and House.

Voting rights Act:  John Edwards is a strong supper of the Voting Rights Act.
