Gloria Dulan-Wilson Blog/ECLECTICALLY BLACK NEWS: NAACP NATIONAL VOTER REGISTRATION DAY - Register to Vote in the Upcoming Midterm Elections

By Gloria Dulan-Wilson

Hello All:

Today is the NAACP's focus on an all out voter registration day across the nation. This means that you and your neighbors, co-workers, friends should be out knocking on doors encouraging those who have not already done so to register to vote. Voter registration deadlines are coming up soon, and we want to make sure we have the turn out we need to restore intelligence and stability to Congress, by restoring it to a Democratic Majority.

STAY BLESSED

Today is National Voter Registration Day and we urge you to join us in this national day of action. With mid-term elections only weeks away, we need to energize and encourage our community to ensure that our voices are heard. Since the 2016 election, we’ve watched as a slew of racist rhetoric and hate-filled policies have taken hold across our country.
On November 6, we have the collective power to shift the political landscape in critical states throughout the country. The first step towards creating this reality is to make sure that everyone in our community is registered to vote.

Are you registered to vote? If you’re unsure, visit the NAACP’s voter registration hub to make sure you’re still on your states voter rolls or register to vote.
For us to be successful in November, we need everyone in our network to vote! Our lives depend on it!

There’s no time to be coy about what’s currently happening in America. In state after state, we are fighting battles that will literally alter our lives. We must organize. We must mobilize. We must do everything we can to turn out: our family, our friends, our neighbors, our co-workers, our sorority sisters, our fraternity brothers, everyone. We must vote! Our lives depend on it!
