I’m DeNora Getachew, CEO of DoSomething.org, and self-proclaimed democracy ninja! I’m excited to be here to answer any and all questions about the voting process.

Today is National Absentee Ballot Day, and we’re celebrating the millions of voters who make their voice heard by absentee ballot.

According to the latest data from CIRCLE, more than 8 million young people will be newly eligible to vote in upcoming election. Youth voters have the ability to impact outcomes on issues like gun safety, climate change, and affordable, high- quality education.

Have questions about absentee voting? Or what to expect when you vote early? Ask me anything about voting early, absentee ballots, voter suppression, the importance of the youth vote, or any other democracy topic you think of!

While you’re waiting for an answer, take 2 minutes and make sure you’re registered to vote.

And if you plan on voting absentee, request your absentee ballot at dosomething.org/absentee.

Proof: Here's my proof!
