John --



Election Day quickly approaches! In states that offer voting by mail, many ballots will be arriving this week (if they haven't already). Be sure your voter registration information is up to date so that casting your ballot this year is a breeze. Our friends at Vote.org have a handy tool to make sure you are current with your information! <[link removed]>



Heading into the weeks before the election, the Forward Party's state teams are throwing a number of events to help answer your burning questions, introduce you to your fellow Forwardists, and build community across the country. Check out what's happening where you live below.



Thanks,



-- The Forward Party Team
