When We All Vote Engages 30 Million Voters Ahead of 2026 Midterms

Amid Increased Attacks on the Right to Vote, When We All Vote Taps Community Organizations, Content Creators, Brands, Celebrities and More to Empower and Educate Voters Across the Country

WASHINGTON, Nov. 3, 2026 — Today, on Election Day, When We All Vote celebrates the final day of its record-breaking Party at the Polls program, as well as employing a range of voter engagement tactics to reach eligible voters where they are — including digital outreach and education, partnerships with celebrity Co-Chairs and Ambassadors, collaborations with corporate and media partners, the newly launched Content Creator Network, direct voter outreach and more. Through these combined efforts, When We All Vote has engaged 30 million Americans with the resources, tools and information they need to cast a ballot in these critical midterm elections.

Election Day arrives as voter suppression efforts continue to escalate across the country. Recently, voters in states like Georgia, Texas, Tennessee and more have experienced delayed mail ballots, closed polling places, voter registration processing issues and reported problems with voting equipment. And with increased confusion and intimidation from redistricting, potential changes with mail-in ballots and the threat of federal interference at the polls, access to accurate, fact-checked information is more important than ever.

"From the economy and healthcare to affordability and voting rights, voters' top issues are on the ballot. Today's elections are bigger than just the officials we elect — they are about creating a system that works for all of us. While building a better, more hopeful future starts with showing up today, the work does not end on Election Day. We're proud to have reached millions of voters this election season and will be here to support Americans in staying engaged and continuing to make their voices heard at the ballot box and beyond," said Kalisha Dessources Figures, When We All Vote Senior Advisor.

The Party at the Polls program culminates with Election Day celebrations across the country today — including more than one thousand events hosted by community partners nationwide, more than 90 campus parties with the ALL IN Campus Democracy Challenge and a flagship event in Jackson, Mississippi, at Jackson State University and Tougaloo College. Party at the Polls is proven to increase local voter turnout by 2–4 percentage points and is proof that community is a powerful antidote to fear and intimidation.

Highlights from the Party at the Polls program and When We All Vote's get out the vote work include:

• A flagship celebration at North Carolina A&T State University, where thousands of students marched to the nearest polling site after being denied an on-campus polling location with When We All Vote Co-Chair Marsai Martin and Ambassador Trinity Tatum

• More than 180 events on college campuses in collaboration with the ALL IN Campus Democracy Challenge
• More than one thousand We The Action lawyers volunteering to support election protection efforts and make sure every vote is counted
• Social collaborations with We The Urban, Hamilton, Universal Music Group, VoteRiders and more

• Corporate partnerships with Lyft to offer ride codes for free/discounted rides to polling locations; giveaways from Dieux Skin, Experiment, The Ordinary and Tony's Chocolonely; Vote Early Day events at Clare V. stores; and more

Turning listening from Pass the Mic to Gen Z survey and listening tour findings into action, When We All Vote continues to meet voters where they are both in-person and online this election season to connect the issues young, Black and Latino Americans care about most to what is on the ballot. Twenty-four creators across platforms joined When We All Vote this fall as trusted messengers in the new Content Creator Network, encouraging their audiences to bring voting from their FYPs to the ballot box. With a combined following of more than 37 million, creators like Leigh Soriano, Cameron Jerrard, Golloria and more are providing their audiences with crucial, fact-checked information about elections and deadlines — all in their authentic voices, styles and platforms.
