Questions about voting? Download Election Protection App!

Need to find out how to register? Not sure where to vote? Does your state require photo ID at the polls? Find the answers to these questions and many more by downloading the brand new Election Protection Smartphone App.

We want you to use this app to learn about the voting process in your state. It equips you with tools to educate your friends and family about important voting information. You can also go out into your community and empower others to take the steps necessary to vote in November.

Here’s what you can do with the app:

• Register to vote and verify your registration;
• Look up your polling place;
• Review key voting rules and regulations for your state;
• See what type of machine you will vote on; and
• Contact Election Protection via phone or email to report a problem or get answers to your voting questions.

The Lawyers’ Committee for Civil Rights, NALEO Education Fund, New Organizing Institute, Rock the Vote and Verified Voting joined forces to launch this app to help voters navigate through the voting process. Download the Election Protection Smartphone App, and you will have all you need to know about voting in the palm of your hand.

The app is available now in English, we’ll release a Spanish language version later this month. You can download the new Election Protection Smartphone App here.

If you have any questions or problems voting, you can also call 1-866-OUR-VOTE (1-866-697-8683) or visit us online at 866ourvote.org.

Thanks,

Eric Marshall & Marcia Johnson-Blanco
Co-Leaders, Election Protection
