WHAT'S ON THE BALLOT?
OCTOBER
Help your team get ready to vote for the General Elections on November 3, 2026 and review who and what are on their ballot. Go over these key voting questions:
WHERE
Where will you vote? (at home or on campus)
Are you currently registered to vote in that state?
HOW
Check dates and requirements of the state you plan to vote in.
Do you plan to vote by mail or in person? (If by mail, plan to request absentee ballot)
Find your polling location. How will you get to the polls? (walk, car, bus, etc)
Do you need and have a valid voter ID? Check state by state rules here.
WHEN
Election Day is November 3, 2026.
Vote on Election Day or check for early voting options in your state.
Your polling place may change based on what day you vote- make sure to check before you go to the polls.
Set up reminders for your team and post around the locker room!
