It's not too late to apply to vote-by-mail. Many states have online application portals. Others allow you to email a copy of your completed application. Don't rely on a handwritten application sent through the mail if you don't have to! #NationalVoterRegistrationDay

Tag a US voter living abroad! If you are a US Citizen who is over 18 and you meet the eligibility requirements, you have a right to vote in US elections. This is true regardless of when, where, how long, and even if you ever resided in the US. SuffrageOverSilence.com/us-voters-abro…

Just because the voting rules were one way last election or where you used to live, you can't assume it'll be the same in November. Just because you saw a meme or a tweet, you can't assume it's true for your state. SuffrageOverSilence.com

IT IS PERFECTLY LEGAL TO POST A PICTURE OF YOUR MAIL BALLOT ENVELOPE. It always has been. In every state. Forever and ever. Amen. Justin Timberlake got in trouble for posting a picture of his MARKED BALLOT INSIDE A POLLING PLACE IN TENNESSEE. Even that is legal in most states.

Let's not elect him this time either. It's time to abolish the electoral college. Until then, we need a big win in order to "win." Please vote. #ElectoralCollege

Texas voters waiting in line: we see y'all. We stand with y'all. It shouldn't be this difficult. In 1997, David Wolf was the first American Astronaut to cast his ballot in microgravity. Everyone should have access to vote absentee here on planet earth, especially in Texas.

Voting can feel complicated and overwhelming. Your friends and neighbors may have questions. But if they can't find the answers, they might just decide not to vote. If this election matters to you and you're willing to help, let everyone know you share well with others!

If you have any way to vote early, don't wait for November 3rd. You could be sick, quarantined, snowed-in, flooded-out, surrounded by a swarm of murder hornets, or anything else 2020 can cook up. Leave nothing to chance. Get out there and vote.

If voting by mail is a Democratic plot to rig the election, someone should tell Utah. Voting by mail is safe. Donald Trump has done it for years. Republicans didn’t protest until it became popular among Democrats. Their problem isn't vote-by-mail, it's who's doing it.

Many Indigenous communities use P.O. Boxes instead of traditional addresses. The 2015 law affected an estimated 5,000 voters. The 2020 agreement stipulated that the burden of verifying street addresses would now be put on the state of North Dakota.

Do you live at the bottom of the Grand Canyon? Can you still receive parcels? Yes! The Havasupai People of the Supai Village have done so for at least 100 years. But most of what they receive isn’t just mail; it’s packaged food and medicine. And ballots.

Mississippi is the only state that does not post its vote-by-mail application online. Their approved absentee voter excuses are some of the most restrictive in the country. And they offer zero in-person early voting days.
