#QTHEVOTE Voting Tools


#QTHEVOTE was formed to help our community register to vote. Minority voting rights are under attack by hostile forces nationwide through coordinated suppression efforts—but we are fighting back by making it easier for LGBTQIA+ Americans to register to vote.

Using technology from the non-partisan VOTE.org, QtheVote.com is now a platform for LGBTQIA+ voter registration. You can register to vote online in as little as two minutes.

ABOUT #QTHEVOTE
