University of Arizona students concerned about no polling location on Election Day
TUCSON, Ariz. (13 News) - The University of Arizona does not have an Election Day polling location, which has some students concerned.
As of now, the closest polling location on Election Day will be the First United Methodist Church on Park and South Campus Drive. It’s just a 5- to 10-minute walk from Old Main, but students tell 13 News it’s just another barrier.
“The more difficult you make something and the more barriers you put in front of people, the less likely they are to do things,” said Miranda Lopez, a graduate student and member of the Arizona Students’ Association. “Even if the barriers are very, very low.”
Lopez said she wasn’t a part of the discussions on an Election Day polling location on campus and was disappointed to learn there wasn’t.
