September 17 is National Voter Registration Day
Today is National Voter Registration Day! It’s the perfect time to make a plan to vote in the 2024 Election.
Here’s what you need to do:
Step one: Register to vote and check your voter registration status
Since the Supreme Court gutted the Voting Rights Act in 2013, many states have made voting harder. One of the main ways they’ve kept people out of the voting process is through purging voters from their rolls. Many people don’t realize their voting status has changed until it is too late.
Can you imagine going to the polls on November 5th only to discover that you can’t vote? Don’t get caught slipping!
Step two: Decide HOW you want to vote.
Showing up at your local polling place on November 5th isn’t the ONLY option you have to vote. With such a historic presidential election, polling places in our communities will likely have long lines and wait times on Election Day. Voting before November 5th may be better for you.
Visit BlackPAC.com/vote to find the right voting option for you—whether you’re voting by mail, in person early, or on Election Day.
Step three: Make sure your loved ones are ready to vote, too.
If we want a government that works for everyone, everyone has to have a say. That means everyone who can vote MUST vote.
Remind your friends and family to take these steps, too. If you know someone who is eligible but not registered to vote, get them registered today.
