LWV Alachua County is excited to again bring you the nonpartisan election resource VOTE411.org in time for the Aug. 20 primary and Gainesville city elections.

Launched by the national League of Women Voters Education Fund in 2006, this “one-stop shop” for election information has simple, accessible tools to help voters navigate the voting process.

VOTE411.org is a comprehensive online resource that includes candidate information, election dates, early voting details and more. You might use it to check your registration status or the type of identification you’ll need to bring with you. But type in your home address* and VOTE411.org tailors itself to you, displaying information you need to ensure you know who’s running in local races and their stance — in their own words — on important local issues.

VOTE411.org helps millions each year — many of them young people and first-time voters — learn more about the voting process. The polling-place locator is among the site’s most-used features.
