The right to vote and have our voices heard is fundamental to our democracy.

At a time when far too many eligible voters are discouraged from voting or wrongly turned away from the polls, we need to rededicate ourselves to increasing participation among eligible voters.

The Democracy Justice League is made up of hundreds of youth volunteers on the ground at polling sites across the country connecting voters to the 866-OUR-VOTE hotline. They volunteer at polling places, especially in communities with a history of voting problems, where hotly-contested races exacerbate the chance of long lines, confusion, and other complications. We’ll also be in states where there may be confusion about voter ID requirements. Poll monitors will provide information, troubleshoot problems, and report bad practices to our teams to resolve them with election officials.

It’s this effort that facilitates our year-round work to advance strong voting reform: we note patterns or practices during the election, bring problems to the attention of elections officials and administrators, and work with them to arrive at commonsense solutions together. With this “all hands on deck” approach, we advance improved elections systems.

Protecting Voting Rights

We need volunteers like you will be voters’ first line of defense against suppression tactics, confusing laws, outdated infrastructure, and other impediments to making themselves heard.

You can use our voting tools to verify your voter registration, find out if you are eligible to vote, register to vote, get election reminders and more.
