Be a Voter!

Democracy is not a spectator sport. It requires continual work to protect it and keep it strong. And the best way to protect and strengthen our democracy is to participate in it!

You are entering a new phase of your lives where you will have even more influence in what happens in your local community, the state and the country. As a citizen, your active civic participation as a voter is essential in that process. Be a voter and vote on June 6th.

Register to vote online or by downloading a printable postage paid form for your county.

Want a convenient way to vote whether you’re at home or away at school? After you register you can apply for a Vote-By-Mail ballot.
