About the U.S. Vote Foundation Election Dates and Deadlines Tool

U.S. Vote Foundation (US Vote) provides voters with the necessary dates and information regarding upcoming elections, registration deadlines, and absentee and early voting options in every state of the United States. The tool is easy to use, free, and accessible to all, making it a valuable resource for anyone interested in participating in the democratic process. US Vote is a non-profit, non-partisan organization that aims to increase voter participation in U.S. elections. Our  Election Dates and Deadlines service supports our mission, Every Citizen is a Voter, and is one of US Vote’s most valuable services.

Functionality of the Election Dates and Deadlines Tool

One of the most useful features of the Election Dates and Deadlines tool is that it provides voters with a granular and comprehensive list of all the different deadlines for every type of voting action. There are many different deadlines associated with the election process, such as voter registration deadlines, deadlines for requesting absentee ballots, and deadlines for returning absentee ballots. US Vote tracks all these deadlines in a very detailed manner, ensuring that voters have the relevant information they need to participate in the election.

How to Use the Election Dates and Deadlines Tool

To access the Election Dates and Deadlines tool, users simply need to choose their state from the drop-down menu on the US Vote website. Once the user selects their state, they are presented with a detailed list of all upcoming elections, categorized by level - either Federal/State or Local/Municipal. For example, voters can see when the next local election will take place, as well as anticipate the date of their upcoming primary and general elections on Presidential election years.

Election Dates and Deadlines Tool offers voters a complete view of the various different deadlines associated with each election. This includes not only the election date itself, but also the registration deadlines and the date ranges for in-person absentee and early voting. This information is presented in an easy-to-read format, making it simple for voters to plan their participation in the election process.

US Vote’s Voter Alerts Proactively Inform Voters of Election Dates and Deadlines

In addition to providing information about upcoming elections and deadlines, US Vote also offers voters the ability to create a Voter Account and sign up for Voter Alerts. This exclusive service sends voters customized reminders about upcoming election dates and deadlines via email. This service is particularly useful for busy individuals who may forget important deadlines or who need reminders to stay on top of the election process.

US Vote’s Commitment

Our organization works hard to identify and maintain the information on upcoming elections across the US. Only official sources are used in our data curation process. If voters or Election Officials know of an election that is not yet listed on our website, they are invited to submit the information directly to our data team through an easy-to-use online form available on the Election Dates and Deadlines pages for every state.

US Vote is committed to ensuring that every eligible voter in the United States has the information they need to participate in the democratic process. The Election Dates and Deadlines tool is just one of the many resources we offer to achieve this goal. By providing comprehensive information about upcoming elections, registration deadlines, and absentee and early voting options, US Vote helps to ensure that all eligible voters can make informed decisions and have their voices heard.

Overall, US Vote is playing an important role in increasing voter participation and ensuring that all eligible voters have a voice in the democratic process.
