Gaithersburg in Top 20 of most voter-friendly cities in America


Amid a national debate over policies that make it easier or harder to vote, Bethesda is in the enviable position of just having been declared the most voter-friendly city in America. A study by the website Insurify found that voting is easier in Bethesda than any other city in America due to its United States Postal Service availability (number of post offices, USPS services per capita, and number of mailboxes), its historical voter turnout, and the quality of the infrastructure for voting absentee or by mail.

Gaithersburg was the other city in Montgomery County to make the list, at #18. Columbia was the only other Maryland town to appear on the list. Bethesda was the only city on the list to earn an A+ grade from the study's authors.
