Road to 2022 Midterm Elections Ends

Election season ends with Runoff of Senate seat and record turnout for early voting.


The 2022 Midterm GOTV campaign that was created and coordinated by the Social Action Committee will end on Runoff Election Day, December 6. We did our best to inspire and mobilize DeKalb Citizens to exercise their right to vote by hosting a community-wide empowerment GOTV festival, voter registration drives, educating via social media, and mobilizing voters to the polls in our service area. DAC Delivered!


Many thanks to sorors, friends and our amazing partners for a job well done!

 

Let’s finish the job tomorrow - Join us at the Runoff Election Day of Service to make phone calls, assist voters in getting rides to the polls, sign waving and much more!!! Click here to volunteer

        

Please return all GOTV materials to the CAC on Saturday, December 10 @ 10:30 AM.
