Election Integrity
Our best hope for taking back and rebuilding our democracy.
We partner with frontline organizations fighting to protect election integrity and voting rights. We take individual and group action to ensure that every eligible voter gets to vote and has their vote counted.
On our radar
Protecting voters – Ensuring Boston and Massachusetts voters understand how to check their voter registration, how mail-in voting works, the deadlines for submission to make sure their votes are counted, and how to check that their ballots were counted.
Poll safety – Ensuring that polling places in Boston and other Massachusetts communities are safe from voter intimidation.
Election integrity – Working with partners across the country to protect voting rights in other jurisdictions.
Don't Despair. Prepare.
