Feeling anxious about this election? We highly recommend volunteering to protect voters through Election Protection! You'll be providing real support to voters across the state on Election Day and during Ohio's early vote period to help ensure eligible votes are counted and voters get the help they need.
Join us this Thursday Aug 20 (tonight) at 6pm for a short 30 minute intro to the folks running the show and what to expect as a volunteer. Being part of Election Protection is one of the best ways we can think of to use your energy during this election season—we hope to see you soon!
