Help register voters for critical elections this November
Virginia Catholic Conference provides key voter registration guide, encourages parishes to conduct drives
On November 4, Virginians will be selecting candidates for all 100 seats in the House of Delegates as well as for Governor, Lt. Governor and Attorney General.
Of course, every year in Virginia is an election year. As Catholics, we are called to practice faithful citizenship each time we vote, and in our daily lives.
One very effective way for parishes to help voting-age members participate in the political process is by conducting nonpartisan voter registration drives. The Virginia Catholic Conference has updated its voter registration guide, which includes 10 easy steps for conducting a drive. Parishes are highly encouraged to consider conducting drives using this resource. Please contact us at 804.225.8565 or at office@vacatholic.org with any questions or for further assistance.
The registration deadline for the general election is Friday, October 24. (Voters may still register after this date, through Election Day. However, to enable the registrar to verify their eligibility, they will be given a provisional ballot with which to vote).

In prayer and in public, your voices are urgently needed to bring Gospel values to bear on vital decisions being made by those who represent you.
