Summer Reading Challenge


Get in the Game! Vote!

This year’s Summer Reading Challenge asks you to get in the game. One way to get in the game is to make sure your voice is heard and encourage others to participate as well. A healthy democracy requires all citizens to engage. So let’s all take up the following multi step challenge.

Step 1:
Are you registered to vote? If you are YAY! If you’re not sure check out your status with a visit to https://www.lavote.net/vrstatus. If you’re not registered get registered. Do it today with a visit to https://registertovote.ca.gov/. Hint while you’re registering choose vote by mail, it’s the easiest way to vote.

Step 2:
Now let’s expand the challenge. Make a list of 10 people (you can do more if you want). Contact each person on the list and find out if they’re registered to vote. If they are take the opportunity to remind them to vote this fall. If they are not take steps to get them registered. Do more than just tell them to do it tell them HOW to do it. Visit https://www.usa.gov/register-to-vote for the state specific details you need.

Step 3:
Expand the challenge by asking each of the 10 people you contacted to contact their own list of 10 people and repeat the process.
