U.S. Vote Foundation Information

At U.S. Vote Foundation (US Vote), we’re on a mission to make it simple and easy for every American citizen to vote. The right to vote is part of our country’s foundation. Voter participation and engagement is essential, and every citizen should be able to exercise this right. While the country has made huge strides in voter turnout, there’s still a lot of work to be done to ensure that US Vote’s motto – Every Citizen is a Voter – comes true. Through five presidential elections and countless state and local elections, US Vote and Overseas Vote have helped tens of millions of voters – domestic, overseas, and military – figure out the how, where, and when of voting. What We Do 1. We give voters the information they need. US Vote’s website is a free, accurate, easy-to-use resource that gives voters a simple way to find out: • Where, when, and how they can register to vote • When their state’s voter registration deadlines are • What their state’s rules are for absentee and mail-in voting • Where their polling place is, and when polls are open • Who their election officials are, and how they can contact their local election office 2. We amplify our reach by making our tools available to other civic organizations. We partner with voter outreach organizations, state and county governments, and federal agencies, giving them access to our accurate, up-to-date software database of state- and local-level civic data. US Vote is a trailblazer. It is the only nonpartisan, nonprofit organization to offer all voter services and information for domestic, military, and overseas voters in one place. US Vote takes a voter-centric approach to its work, keeping the voters top of mind in every strategic decision.
