Same Day Voter Registration

Same Day Voter Registration

Rhode Island has the longest voter registration deadline in the country, disenfranchising thousands of otherwise eligible voters every election year. We are working to expand access to the ballot by bringing same day voter registration to Rhode Island. You can help us win this needed reform.
