Lucas, millions of people in the U.S. -- including people who agree that
we need a liberal Supreme Court, rely on social safety net programs like
Social Security and Medicare and want the internet to be a public utility
-- do not vote. And they don't vote for the silliest reason: They
never registered.
That's where you come in.
Daily Kos has teamed up with Fight for the Future to empower anyone, no
matter where they are, to register voters through text message.
HelloVote is an innovative idea. Simply enter a phone number on the website
provided or text DAILYKOS to 384-387 and HelloVote will guide you through
the process and take care of filling out the voter registration form for
your state.
It's as simple as sending a few texts!

In several states, your answers submit directly to state online forms,
so there are no paper forms to fill out. In other states, HelloVote sends
you a pre-filled form by email or - if you don't have a printer -
by mail. They include a stamped envelope, so to complete your registration
you just have to sign and mail it. Before submitting your registration,
HelloVote will give you the chance to verify that your information is
correct. Also, because they care about privacy, any information submitted
is encrypted.
The first voter registration deadlines are coming up in just a couple of weeks. Some in key states where we could take back the Senate or possibly flip
a House seat. We need your help to make sure as many Democrats as possible
are registered and ready to turn out the vote in November.
Whether you are at a book club, the grocery store or hanging out with
family, you'll likely run into someone who isn't registered to
vote. Help Team Blue elect a progressive future by making sure they register ASAP.
