WE ALL NEED TO VOTE! The Registration Deadlines You Should Know (By State)
I am sure I don’t need to remind anyone that Election Day is in 62 days. It’s all any news source can talk about and I know that impending date has almost every American a little on edge. About a week ago I checked my voter registration status 5 times just to make sure I was good to go and it dawned on me that the most important date we should be focused on at this moment is not Election Day but registration deadline day. Not surprisingly, deadlines and instructions on voter registration vary by state… I mean why make it simple? We at EHD want to empower everyone to use their voice and vote, so I put together this list to ensure YOU have the deadlines you need. Bookmark it, send it to your family and friends, and whatever you do GO VOTE!
