Celebrating Vote Early Day

2 Weeks from Election Day

Vote Early Day was founded in 2020 to celebrate and promote voting early in person and voting by mail. When Americans vote early, they ensure that last-minute problems will not prevent them from casting their ballots – and help shorten voting lines on Election Day for everyone.

This year, Vote Early Day will take place on Friday, October 28th, but nonprofits like yours can share information all week long to help amplify the benefits of voting early. Use the graphics they’ve created to make your messages pop

Dear [Name of Receiver],

Dear [Name of Recipient],

Friday, October 28th is Vote Early Day but you don’t have to wait until then to celebrate! Vote Early Day is a nonpartisan movement of nonprofits, businesses, election administrators, and creatives working to ensure all Americans know their options to vote early. Celebrate Vote Early Day by casting your ballot, making sure you’re ready to vote, and reminding others to make their voices heard.

Are you ready to vote? Great! Mail in or drop off your ballot, or cast your vote at an early voting site to make sure your community is represented in the general election. Use #VoteEarly and #VoteReady to share with your friends that you have voted.

Are you getting prepared to vote? Awesome! Find your personal voting information by going to  vote411.org and typing in your address.

Are you helping others vote? Amazing! Share information with them about the benefits of voting early like avoiding long lines and how they can find vital information about voting at canivote.org.

Thank you for being a voter or sharing voting information with others!
