Don't Get Stopped at the Polls on Election Day

What does it take to vote in this critical election? Did you know that Arizona is the only U.S. state to require proof of citizenship in order to register to vote? Or that Florida and Michigan require photo IDs at the polling machines? New American Meadia is here to help sort out these rules and conditions in many battleground states. 

 

New America Media, the country’s first and largest collaboration of ethnic news outlets, presents a series of print and radio public service announcements to inform ethnic media audiences with what they need to cast a vote on Election Day. NAM is partnering with voter-engagement groups to execute a succinct, attention-getting public guide to voting. This initiative is founded on the belief that no voting information should be taken for granted as common knowledge in an election year—especially when threats to American election integrity are widespread, and when election laws vary dramatically on a state-by-state basis.  

 

Focusing on nine states—Arizona, Colorado, Florida, Michigan, Missouri, New Mexico, Ohio, Pennsylvania, and Wisconsin—New America Media will create multi-lingual pre-produced public service announcements that tell readers “What to Bring to The Polls on Election Day.”
