I could add to that.
Some days, working in the neighbourhood, it's really hectic. There are a lot of things going on. If we're wanting, on election day, to help someone to vote—people who are disabled, in wheelchairs, have trouble with mobility issues, to find the individual in their poll to walk with them, to be the voucher for that individual—to organize all of that takes a lot out of the day but that's still the only opportunity that person would have to vote.
All of these things are good. The application forms are good. What all of the political parties do in terms of trying to make sure their own supporters have credentials ahead of election day is a good thing that happens. But for folks who are exceptionally marginalized, without that other mechanism that allows someone to vouch for them, effectively they do not have the right to vote.
I appreciate what you say. We're happy to try to enfranchise as many people as possible, but it is a lot of work and we wish we had more individuals to help people vote. We would probably increase the homeless vote as a result, but we can only do so much on election day and we go flat out.
The people I work with who attempt to help people in any way they can—whether it be with transportation or help finding credentials or through finding an individual to vouch for people—go from eight until eight and we're always disappointed that we haven't gotten to everybody. We never will get to everybody.
