The idea of making elections more accessible is a widely agreed-upon stance by more liberal Americans, even ones who are mostly moderate.  The basic idea is that people have a right to make their voices heard and there should be fewer barriers between the people and the polls.  Where that united stance breaks down is in discussions of how to make that happen.  In particular, a major push by some people is to make Election Day a National Holiday.  This is a measure that I do not agree with.
