Our Protect the Vote campaign is underway! Over 4,000 volunteers are standing ready to assure that voters will have a voice on Election Day.
We’ve also set up national, nonpartisan hotlines that voters can call to get the help they need — will you help us spread the word about 
these resources (http://www.commoncause.org/issues/voting-and-elections/voter-protection/voting-hotlines.html)?
If you or anyone you know encounters problems while voting, call:
866-OUR-VOTE (866-687-8683) – English language hotline
888-VE-Y-VOTA (888-839-8682) – Spanish language hotline
888-API-VOTE (888-274-8683) – Chinese, Vietnamese, Korean, Bengali, Hindi, Urdu, Tagalog
1-844-418-1682 – Arabic language hotline
Voters anywhere in the country can call these numbers to learn where they need to go and what they need in order to vote. They can also report problems like long lines, faulty voting machines, and anything else obstructing voters. The hotlines are staffed by attorneys and connected to local groups all across the country who can address situations in real time.
The more voters who hear about these hotlines, the more people we can help on Election Day. Please take a moment to share on social media!
You can also help spread the word about these hotlines by printing out this poster:
Help us get the word out by sharing this poster wherever people will see it – download, then print posters, and then distribute them in your community. For example, pin them up on community bulletin boards, at your place of worship, schools, or ask businesses if they will put them in their window. Only post them where it is OK with local laws.
