Demand every state provide voters with online voter registration.

John,
From phone banks to letter writing campaigns to voter ID clinics at homeless shelters, the Coalition on Human Needs and our allies are working overtime to stop voter suppression and ensure all eligible voters have what they need to make their voices heard between now and Election Day.
But, did you know that in 7 states, voters still can’t register to vote online?
Check out Dominique’s email below for more details, then add your name and call on all 50 states to immediately adopt online voter registration!
TAKE ACTION
Because online voter registration is easy, it increases voter participation, particularly among communities of color and other under-represented communities―exactly the communities that CHN and our allies are working so hard to help vote this election.
Thank you for all that you do to make our democracy accessible to everyone.

John,
This coming Tuesday is National Voter Registration Day―a critical day to remind millions of people across the country to register before the fast-approaching midterm elections.
One quick and easy way for people to register to vote is online. But did you know that 7 states still don’t provide online voter registration? That’s right! From New England to the Great Plains to the Deep South, millions of voters must still mail-in or hand-deliver paper voter registration forms. This is inconvenient for voters and inefficient for town clerks and Secretaries of State.
Join CHN and our national allies in calling on every state to immediately adopt online voter registration to make our democracy accessible to millions more eligible voters.
Right now, the states of Arkansas, Mississippi, Montana, New Hampshire, South Dakota, Texas, and Wyoming still don’t offer online voter registration. Our right to vote shouldn’t depend upon our access to a printer or ability to travel in-person to a municipal office. Registration should be as quick and convenient as possible. You can help by calling on election officials in these 7 states to adopt online voter registration.
TAKE ACTION
Because online voter registration is easy, it increases voter participation―particularly among communities of color and under-represented communities. Those are exactly the communities that CHN and our allies are working so hard to help vote this election―particularly in the face of massive voter suppression geared toward suppressing the votes of Black, brown, Indigenous, LGBTQ+, and low-income people.
Click here to add your name and call on the Secretaries of State of Arkansas, Mississippi, Montana, New Hampshire, South Dakota, Texas, and Wyoming to immediately implement online voter registration.
Together, we’re working to ensure people turn out and vote for human needs between now and Election Day. And that starts by making voter registration accessible to all eligible voters.
Thank you for fighting for a democracy that represents all of us, not just the few.
