Over 20 states changed their vote-by-mail rules this year. 😵‍💫

Every vote counts—literally. This week in Nevada, two tied candidates drew cards to determine the winner of their local race. 🏆

Do you think your vote won’t make a difference? Think again. Democracy only works when all of us participate.

LET’S GOOO! 👏 Tonight, Maine rejected an anti-voter ballot initiative that would have made it MUCH harder for Mainers to vote.

Question 1 Rejected in Maine
With the resounding defeat of the anti-voter Question 1, Maine voters sent a conclusive message to the state and our country.
