Which statement about mail-in or absentee voting is accurate?

• A. Automatic voter registration.
• B. Mail-in or absentee voting.
• C. Voter suppression.
• D. Ballot initiative.

Answer: (B)

Mail-in or absentee voting describes the process of casting a ballot without going to a polling place on Election Day. It typically involves requesting a ballot, receiving it by mail, marking it, and returning it by a deadline. This directly captures the method of voting by mail, including how it enables participation for those who can’t vote in person. The other options refer to different concepts: automatic voter registration is about how people are registered to vote, voter suppression is a broad term for tactics to deter participation, and a ballot initiative is a direct vote on proposed laws. So the statement that names voting by mail is the accurate one.
