Election Protection

Here are the basics:
- Keep your place in line. The lines may be long, but as long as you are in line when the polls close, you will be allowed to cast your ballot. If you leave the line, you may not be able to vote.
- Do everything you can to vote a regular ballot. Cast a provisional ballot only if you have no other option. In many states if you cast a provisional ballot at the wrong polling location it will not be counted.
If you experience any of the following, report it to Election Protection (866-687-8683) immediately:
- Intimidation
- Harassment (including harassing questions about your qualifications to vote)
- False information about voting requirements
- People impersonating poll workers or election officials
