Countdown to Election Day

The midterms are 5 days away! Don’t be scared by the latest polls, stay motivated! Whether it’s knocking doors, making phone calls, sending texts, writing postcards, putting up lawn signs, or reminding friends and family members to vote – your actions can help make a difference. 

Early Voting & Protecting the Right to Vote

Early voting in New York is only three years old and still somewhat of a novelty, but the numbers tell a story about enthusiasm and turnout. With so many competitive high-profile races in New York come concerns about protecting the right to vote. In our latest podcast, Jarret Berg, Co-Founder and Voting Rights Counsel at Vote Early New York, discusses all things voting.
