On Tuesday, September 23rd, we celebrate National Voter Registration Day. HeadCount has been a part of creating this “holiday,” which is now officially endorsed by the National Association of Secretary of States.
This year, over 1,000 organizations are involved! And HeadCount will be registering voters in 20 cities around America.
We’ll also be hitting it hard on social media, with 350 musicians and entertainers posting and tweeting photos with our “Register to Vote” clipboards.
Like any good holiday, HeadCount is trying to extend the celebration, and will kick off street canvassing and community events on Sunday, September 21 and keep on going until the last call on September 23rd. Help us #celebrateNVRD by volunteering, registering to vote, or using social media to show support!
