Vote Early Day is excited to offer three exciting and impactful ways corporate partners can empower their employees to share their voices this fall. With a critical election just months away, these plans provide tangible ways for employers and employees to uplift the voters who need this information most.
Background:
Vote Early Day is a national day of action and celebration for our democracy. Thousands of businesses, nonprofits, election administrators, campus groups, and creatives unite each year to build activations that provide Americans with the tools and knowledge to overcome Election Day hurdles by voting early.
When we vote early, voters ensure last-minute problems, long lines at the polls, confusing election laws, or voter disinformation cannot prevent us from casting our ballots. Together, we can ensure every American’s voice is heard!
Created in 2020, Vote Early Day has engaged nearly 5,000 national and local partners, including MTV, Snapchat, Uber, PayPal, REI, United Way, The League of Women Voters, BET, and more. Through this diverse collaboration of partners, our message breaks through the political noise by meeting voters where they are.
This year, Vote Early Day is celebrated on Tuesday, October 28, one week ahead of this year’s Election Day. This year’s celebration will be critical as partners help Americans share their voices on who will be elected in vital statewide and local races.
