September 20, 2022, is National Voter Registration Day. This is a massive cross-country effort to register voters ahead of the midterm elections.
The Harris County Robert W. Hainsworth Law Library is proud to be a National Voter Registration Day partner. On September 20, the Law Library will be open 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. for voter registration. If you can’t make it that day, our librarians are available to assist with voter registration services during regular operating hours, Monday – Friday, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., excluding Harris County holidays.
As a reminder, the last day to register to vote in the 2022 mid-term elections is Tuesday, October 11.
Every eligible American voter should have the option to exercise their right to be heard at the ballot box, and National Voter Registration Day is the right day to start by getting registered. Communities across the country, in all 50 states and D.C., are planning to use National Voter Registration Day to get registered and get #VoteReady. 2022 also marks National Voter Registration Day’s 10th anniversary.
Founded in 2012, National Voter Registration Day is designed to create an annual moment when the entire nation focuses on registering Americans to exercise their most basic right – the right to vote. Nearly 4.5 million Americans have registered to vote on the holiday since the inaugural National Voter Registration Day.
Thousands of national, state, and local organizations and volunteers will be the driving force behind National Voter Registration Day 2022. Partner organizations will coordinate hundreds of National Voter Registration Day events on and offline nationwide, and leverage #NationalVoterRegistrationDay and #VoteReady on social media to drive attention to voter registration.
NationalVoterRegistrationDay.org, provides a listing of National Voter Registration Day events across the country, in communities and held virtually. It also includes comprehensive and state-specific resources on all things voter registration and voting more generally.
