Working To Make Your Vote Count
Tomorrow is Election Day and the NAACP is prepared to ensure that you can exercise your right to vote and have it counted. For months our units have been working across the country to make certain that eligible voters are registered, informed about important issues, and prepared to make decisions in this year’s mid-term elections.
Today, the NAACP is involved in a national effort to Get-Out-The-Vote and is committed to protecting each vote cast on November 7th. The NAACP is part of the nation’s most comprehensive and far-reaching nonpartisan Election Protection Coalition. Joined by People for the American Way and the Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights Under Law, the NAACP is prepared to provide direct and immediate assistance to voters by way of a national Election Protection hotline: 1-866-OUR-VOTE.

The 1-866-OUR-VOTE hotline is staffed by live call center operators trained to provide state-specific assistance to all voters. Lawyers, poll monitors and additional volunteers will be mobilized to inform voters and solve problems on issues such as voter identification requirements, voting machine malfunctions, problems at the polling place, and voter intimidation between now and Election Day. While the toll-free hotline will be available to voters nationwide, Election Protection ground operations will be concentrated in target states with precincts most at risk for disenfranchisement, including low-income communities, African American and Latino communities, and areas with a history of voting irregularities.
The decisions we make tomorrow will certainly have an impact on our future. Please take a moment to take down 1-866-OUR-VOTE and keep it handy on Election Day.
PROTECT YOUR VOTE!
