Voter Protection Action Kit
This Voter Protection Action Kit is a collection of tips, examples, and resources to address election problems and to help community partners develop processes to successfully meet and exceed voter protection related goals. The Action Kit focuses on pre-Election Day activities such as ensuring that eligible citizens are able to register to vote and go to the polls and vote on Election Day. As voter protection becomes part of your ongoing work, your own "best practices" will help you remove obstacles that exclude low-income voters and voters of color from political participation in your state. If you are interested in being part of the movement to promote transparency in the election process and achieve a just democracy that protects the rights of all voters, this Voter Protection Action Kit will serve as your playbook for change.

Voter Protection Nutshells
These publications are part of a series intended to distill complex election law for lawyers, advocates, voter registration campaigns and "Get Out the Vote" campaigns. They combine state election law with state regulations, rules, attorney general opinions and other election materials to provide a comprehensive interpretation of the law and practices that impact elections. While these publications do not cover every provision of state election law, they highlight those provisions, which, in our experience, have most impacted the voting rights of minority voters.
Advancement Project publishes these nutshells with local law firms and lawyers as part of our "Voter Protection Program" project. We encourage our partners to use these legal guides in support of local, on the ground voter protection efforts in advance of Election Day.
