Resources
Causes and help, kept on one shelf
People over profit, humanity over hate. This shelf grows over time.
Voting
The main event right now is the 2026 midterms: Election Day is Tuesday, November 3, 2026, and everything in this section is aimed at that day first. Start with the first link: enter your address and it shows your ballot, your polling place, and its hours. After this election passes, this shelf stays up and re-aims at the next one, local, state, or federal.
- VOTE411 — the League of Women Voters' nonpartisan guide. Enter your address for your personalized ballot, your polling place, and a registration check.
- Vote.gov — the official U.S. government portal: register to vote, check your registration, and see your state's deadlines and rules.
- Can I Vote — the official state-by-state registration lookup from the National Association of Secretaries of State.
- FVAP — voting help for military members and Americans living overseas.
If you are turned away at the polls, told you cannot vote, or intimidated: you have the right to ask for a provisional ballot, and federal law backs the ask. For help on the spot, call the Election Protection hotline at 866-OUR-VOTE (866-687-8683). Stay calm, stay in line, and make them tell you no on the record.
