Deeds Not Words - Deep Diving Into Voter Registration
- National Voter Registration Day (NVRD) is a great opportunity to run a voter registration drive. It is an annual event on the fourth Tuesday in September.
- NVRD Partner Toolkit
- NVRD Communications Toolkit
- Ideas on where to celebrate: Community colleges, universities, clinics, big thrift shops, churches that are hosting an event, apartments, grocery stores, transit and bus stops that have a lot of traffic, laundry mart, grocery stores, football games, rainy Saturday at bowling alleys, naturalization ceremonies, community festivals and carnivals, and coffee shops or bars that have a lot of patrons.
- LWVUS Toolkit: Get the Most out of Voter Registration (PDF)
- New Voter Registration Training Webinars from LWVUS
- Nonprofit Vote: Hold a Successful Voter Registration Event (video)
- Be sure to know your state's laws before you register. Check with your state's Secretary of State or Elections Department page
- Plan the day! Visit the location beforehand, figure out how the table should be set up, think ahead to what your volunteers need to be successful and feel comfortable, bring free giveaways, have plenty of pens and clipboards, have iPads to online registration or for fillable forms that can be printed and signed, bring lots of signage and wear clothes that make you stand out!
- High School voter registrations are better for the spring, as more students are old enough to register. Concentrate on community colleges and universities in the fall.
