Know someone that needs to register to vote, check their registration, or request an absentee ballot? That, and more, is all there in one convenient location. And, don't stop with yourself! Our power comes from organizing with others. Share with your friends and neighbors. Share with your faith community. Together let's engage the deep work of democracy, ensuring every person has the ability to act and influence the collective decisions that impact our social, economic, and political lives. |
