- Several key swing states are over-indexing for engagement with voter registration content, including
7.9x
Arizona
7.7x
North Carolina
7.6x
Florida
7.5x
Georgia

With the election less than two weeks away, here are a few last minute resources to help you exercise your all-important right to vote:
- Not sure if you have the right ID to register?
- Want to vote by mail or simply need an absentee ballot?
- Vote by mail deadlines by state
- Want a reminder on the remaining deadlines?
- Finding your local polling location
- Completed voting but want to volunteer at the polls?
Once you have addressed your own voting needs, have conversations to make sure others in your world are also registered and prepared to cast their ballot. For friends & family who live overseas or are serving in the military overseas, the U.S. Vote Foundation can help them get registered to vote. Students can check out Campus Vote Project if they want to make sure their peers are also registered and ready to cast their vote.
Remember to vote!
