There are many states holding primaries in the coming months so please check to make sure you're aware of when your state is holding its primary and that your registration is up-to-date. We have started hosting many voter registration events and will continue to do so throughout election season. The Voting Action Center on the website has detailed information and you will find all registration events in the listings to the right.
