According to data from the 2020 U.S. Census, almost 1 in 4 people are not registered to vote. A healthy democracy depends on people who are willing to participate–and encourage others to do the same.
Join BigTentUSA on Thursday, September 10, at 12 pm ET for a timely conversation with Chyann Sapp, Coordinator for National Voter Registration Day, on promoting voter registration by organizing registration drives in your communities in the lead up to the 2026 midterm elections.
Chyann will dive into the work NVRD is to get people registered amid ever increasing challenges, and how registering to vote, staying informed, and showing up can help strengthen our democracy. She’ll also discuss how people can organize voter drives in their own communities, one voter at a time.
