This site has been created by two individual volunteers: two U.S. citizens who believe that our right to vote is sacred, that our vote is our voice in our country's participatory democracy. Like millions of others, our awakening to the depth and breadth of challenges that exist in our nation's voting system began with the 2000 election in Florida. The more we have educated and involved ourselves in the complexities and problems of our electoral process, the more alarmed we have become. We have learned that none of us can afford to take our vote for granted.
Our goal for ElectionPreparedness.com is to be a resource for members of all political parties and independents. This site is a labor of love for our country, the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution. We hope you will acknowledge our efforts by Confirming Your Vote, Organizing Locally and alerting all eligible voters to visit our website.
