National Voter Registration Day, idea for poster, banner or flyer, important date vector illustration

September 20th was National Voter Registration Day, an important reminder that having a plan to vote is really important for this upcoming election. Coming out of the pandemic, many states are once again changing the way citizens can vote in their communities. Some are expanding opportunities to vote and unfortunately some states are limiting options. LeadingAge has been passionate about ensuring that older adults have access to voting and the ability to register to vote. We have created an easy to use website, www.leadingage.org/votingplan that will allow anyone to look up their registration status, register to vote, request a mail-in ballot, find their polling place and even look up local candidates. Please share this tool with members and help ensure that everyone has a plan for how they are going to vote this election.
