Happy Vote Early Day, John!

Launched in the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic, Vote Early Day was founded to ensure that every voter knows how, where and when they can vote early. In its first year, over 3,000,000 voters cast their ballots on Vote Early Day alone! Since the pandemic, early voting has become a critical resource so voters don’t have to choose between their health and casting their ballot. For many people, early voting is a convenient option to participate in our democracy at a time that works best for them. Today, we are celebrating and encouraging everyone who can vote early to explore their options!
