Many Americans have recently moved to the Riviera region! Some likely don't know they can vote in US elections, and if they do, they probably need help navigating the process. (It ranges from very straightforward to confusing, depending on the state.) We'll conduct in-person voter registration events around the region starting spring 2026 since there are special elections and primaries folks should know about, but that means we need a big team of voter assistance volunteers.
Helping voters is an extremely gratifying experience and one that could save the US democratic experiment from a dangerous administration. Please take these trainings and be part of our Get Out The Vote (GOTV) Team! Questions? Email Riviera GOTV Officer Paul Kriner.
