National Voter Registration Day is on September 24, 2019!
We know one vote can determine a winner. We also know that in every election, millions of people are unable to make their voices heard because they are not registered to vote or have not updated their voter registrations. That’s a problem that early childhood educators can help to solve—and with National Voter Registration Day just over two weeks away, you can get started today!
Take Action to Be #VoteReady:
- Post the official National Voter Registration Day poster (available in English, Spanish, Chinese, Arabic, Haitian Creole, Tagalog, and more) in your program and classroom.
- AND THEN: Write this sample message in the call-out box: Register, Update, and Verify your voter registration. Visit americaforearlyed.org/register today!
Send an email encouraging staff and colleagues at your organization or child care program to register.
AND THEN: Take it to the next level by planning and running a voter registration activity for your staff and families! This resource will help.
Use your communications channels to promote National Voter Registration Day using these sample social media posts and email messages.
AND THEN: Download and use National Voter Registration Day graphics to make your messages stand out.
