Election Day Voter Tips

,,
“My number one tip is to review what’s on your ballot before voting, especially if you are voting on Election Day. This can help you find additional information about the issues and can give you a plan so you’re ready when the time comes!”
-Kimbree R., SaverLife financial coach
,,
“I love [mail-in voting] because you can sit down with your ballot and research the candidates and resolutions or whatever amendments are on the ballot.”
-Jason, SaverLife member
,,
“Don’t assume you’re registered to vote. It’s a myth that once you’re registered, you’re set for life. Sometimes your registration may change. Check your voter status.
-Steve H., SaverLife team
,,
“For first time voters, I recommend doing it [voting]. I didn’t take part in our country’s voting system because I just felt like my vote wouldn’t do anything – that it wouldn’t make a difference. And that’s complete stupidity. Every vote matters.”
-James P., SaverLife member
,,
“Most all states allow for you to take time off work to vote. Be sure to check the laws in your state and also assert your voter rights in the workplace!”
-Patty M., SaverLife team
,,
“My advice is use a mail-in ballot. That’s how I vote. That way you don’t have to go to the polling place and you can mail it in early and have it done and out of the way.”
-Alison E., SaverLife member
,,
“Make sure you’re properly signed up and in your district. And then when you go to cast your vote, be patient because the workers have a lot of people to deal with. But it becomes a very simple and easy way to express your views and your opinions through voting.”
-LaBaron, SaverLife member
,,
“I send myself a calendar invite AND set up a timer with the exact location & time I’m going to go vote so I don’t forget.”
-Susan L., SaverLife team
,,
“My advice is don’t be nervous. Make sure you have your necessary IDs. And if not, check right now before it even starts.”
-Joy D., SaverLife member
,,
“My word of advice for new people that are voting is just know everyone has some kind of background. Investigate. It’s up to you to vote for yourself, not what someone else wants you to do. Your opinion counts.”
-Raeshella, SaverLife member
