Don´t Miss The VOTE!

 

Check now! Make sure you are registered! 

Are you aware of the voting regulations in your resident state? Do you know if your state has recently changed registration rules, or recently purged registration rolls? These are only some of the strategies being used to disenfranchise people of their vote. Absentee voters are often targeted. 

Putting up all these barriers to voting works: The US has one of the lowest rates of voting among liberal democracies.

• In the 2018 mid-term elections, only about 52 percent of voting-age people cast a ballot – about 120 million people.
• In Wisconsin, new voter ID laws may have prevented 45,000 voters from exercising their right in the 2016 election – that’s in a swing state decided by 22,000 votes.
• Votes by Black people nationally declined in the 2016 election by seven percentage points. 

“We’re the only advanced democracy that deliberately discourages people from voting,” President Obama once said.
