National Voter Registration Day~September 24th

National Voter Registration Day(NVRD) is a holiday celebrated on the forth Tuesday of every September. To see if you are registered to vote or need to do so, you can go online here: http://www.usa.gov/register-to-vote or visit your local DMV.

This day was first observed in 2012 and has been growing in popularity ever since. National Voter Registration Day is a day of civic unity. It’s an opportunity to set aside differences and celebrate democracy and the rights and opportunities we all share as Americans.  Every year millions of Americans find themselves unable to vote because they missed a registration deadline, didn’t update their registration, or aren’t sure how to register. NVRD wants to make sure everyone has the opportunity to vote. NVRD seeks to create broad awareness of voter registration opportunities to reach tens of thousands of voters who may not register otherwise.
