John,

Election Day 2020 received a lot of buzz, but “off-year” elections like this year’s often get overlooked. Do you know if anyone is up for election in your city or state tomorrow?

If lawmakers are being elected at any level of government where you live, then you have a chance to cast your vote on behalf of children and families and make your voice heard! Your vote matters in every election, at every level, and there are decisions being made tomorrow at ballot boxes across the country that will shape the future for our children.

Is there an election where you live tomorrow, November 2nd?

State and local elected officials are responsible for making critical decisions—like how to allocate funding for schools, the role of police in your town and schools, and even who can enroll in life-saving programs and services like Medicaid. Find out more about the role of state and local governments in setting child-friendly policies for your town here.

We thank you for being a champion for our country’s children, at the ballot box and otherwise.

Gratefully,

Your friends at the Children’s Defense Fund
