Empowering Confident Voters: Celebrating National Voter Education Week

On this episode: Ballotpedia’s communications team takes over On the Ballot to kick off National Voter Education Week with guest Zoë Williamson-Crettini from the Students Learn Students Vote Coalition. Zoë joins Abby Campbell and Carley Allensworth to discuss how this national, nonpartisan initiative helps bridge the gap between being registered to vote and actually casting a ballot. They explore how SLSV equips voters with trusted, easy-to-use information, tackles misinformation and low awareness in local elections, and builds lifelong voting confidence. With nearly 600 partner organizations participating across 46 states, this year’s celebration shows that every week — and every election — is an opportunity to strengthen democracy.
