SLIDE 2:
Voter engagement is just one part of voter access. When we text our communities to remind them to register to vote & to vote in the general election, many will reply to say they will be voting. If they aren't sure, they are usually wondering how they can register to vote or how to cast their ballot.
.
SLIDE 3:
When we text our communities, they can ask us questions, & we can give them answers. Oftentimes people will have questions about voting such as:
.
-How do I register to vote
-How do I check if I’m registered?
-When will my ballot arrive?
-How can I vote if I can't fill out a paper ballot?
-Can I vote if I live out of state?
.
We can help increase civic participation by answering those questions quickly & politely!
