“The right to vote is the basic right without which all others are meaningless. It gives people, people as individuals, control over their own destinies.” -Lyndon B. Johnson
Election Day is coming up on Tuesday, November 5, 2024. This year, you have the opportunity to help elect a new president, vice president, and local officials who will impact your community and your future.
Your voice matters! Anyone can vote if they are a U.S. Citizen over the age of 18. You can vote early or by mail, you can vote if you have never voted before, and you can vote if you have a criminal record or felony conviction.
Housing Forward will be hosting a series of voter registration events for our clients, some of which will also be open to the public.
