Get Ready to Vote – It’s Never Too Early

Protecting Reproductive Justice starts with making sure your vote counts in the next election cycle. Voter readiness is more than being registered. It’s knowing the timelines, rules, and potential barriers before they get in your way.

To prepare for this year’s midterm elections, you can:

Confirm your voter registration status

• Use a trusted, nonpartisan tool that lets you check your registration, update your address, and see your options for vote by mail or early voting.
• Tools that let you register, check your status, find your polling place, and track your ballot are a good starting point.

Know your voting options and deadlines

• Look up whether your state offers early voting, no-excuse absentee voting, or vote by mail.
• Add key 2026 dates to your calendar now. Primaries, runoffs (if your state has them), and the 2026 general election.

Check ID and access needs

• Review your state’s voter ID requirements so you’re not scrambling at the last minute.
• If you’re a student, disabled, living abroad, or previously justice-involved, use state or national resources that explain how you can vote from your location and what accommodations or alternatives you can request.

Get reminders

• Sign up for election reminders from a trusted election resource so you can get a text or email anytime there’s an election where you live, not just presidential years.
