Create your Election Day voting plan!

PrimaryAdmin · September 22, 2020 ·

With all of the uncertainty and misinformation surrounding the 2020 election, it’s important to start creating your plan to vote as early as possible. 

Voting absentee or planning to go to your polling place? Have you recently moved? Do you have all of the necessary documents? Are you away at college?

These are some of the questions that are important to answer to create your voting plan for Election Day on November 3rd! 


Nervous to Vote because of COVID-19?

On September 16, 2020, a new law (H.5305/R.149) passed allowing all voters to be able to vote using absentee-by-mail ballots for the upcoming election under the “State of Emergency” reason.

As of October 6, 2020, South Carolinians voting absentee by mail must now have their signatures on ballot return envelopes witnessed after the United States Supreme Court reinstated the requirement.  

Under the court’s order, ballots already received by county officials and those received through October 7th will be counted regardless of whether the return envelope bears a witness signature.

To ensure your absentee by mail ballot counts, voters must:

  • Sign the voter’s oath on the ballot return envelope
  • Have a witness sign and provide address.  Any other person can be a witness.
  • Return your ballot before 7:00 pm on November 3rd. 
  • Ballots can be returned in person or by mail.  You should mail your ballot as soon as possible and at least a week before election day to allow time for delivery before the deadline.

With each utility bill the ⚡ More Money, More Power ⚡ campaign pays, one more rural Black Georgian is free from unfair energy burden for a month or more. http://bit.ly/morepowerfund

The ⚡ More Money, More Power ⚡ campaign is about more than energy equity and decreasing the utility burden on Black rural Georgians (although it’s definitely about that!)
This campaign is also about building real, actionable solidarity between Black urban & rural folx 💪🏿

Movement work didn’t stop in the streets back in August or when we went to the polls in November & January! Until we are all liberated, the movement work continues ✊🏾
