GOTV stands for Get-Out-The-Vote - reminding people to vote and helping them get to the polls on Election Day. GOTV can range from low impact, casual conversation, to intense, highly organized door-knock efforts. Registering people to vote is the first step toward voter mobilization - and GOTV is the next step toward increasing voter participation.

Nonprofit organizations can legally engage in nonpartisan GOTV efforts - and they don't have to be time consuming or difficult. Nonprofit organizations have relationships with many disengaged voters, and we have a unique ability to help get them to the polls.

There are lots of ways that you can help Get Out The Vote in your organization and in your community - the information below are designed to help you do just that.
