The midterm elections are just six weeks away and we want to make sure your vote gets counted.

Happy National Voter Registration Day!  It's a holiday that's been celebrating democracy since 2012.  And, if you have just moved, tied the knot or turned 18, you need to update your registration so your voice can be heard on November 6th.

Millions of Americans are turned away on Election Day because they missed a deadline or failed to update their registration.  Well, it's the digital age, and registering has never been easier.  You can visit nationalvoterregistrationday.org to get started or to find a registration event.  Got questions?  Call 866-OUR-VOTE for answers.

Get your friends involved.  Start a text chain and attach the above link to make sure they're ready to vote too.

Remember to come up with a plan for Election Day.  Set an alarm on your phone, mark it on your calendar or plan a brunch with family and friends so you can all hit the polls together.
