About the Tour
The Free Voices, Woke Choices Tour engages communities across North Carolina to get out and vote in the upcoming 2024 General Election. Woke Vote and Until Freedom are committed to mobilizing with urgency by engaging communities who, for far too long, have been placed in the peripheral view of our political system. We’re coming to colleges and communities near you to reclaim our power, shift the balance, and accelerate the movement to ensure our communities are informed, prepared, and organized in a non-partisan way. Our activations are designed to energize students and community members while providing critical voter resources that encourage voter registration and early voting.
THIS IS URGENT. HERE’S WHY.
The tour is more critical than ever in the context of North Carolina's recent voter purge, where nearly 747,000 individuals—almost 10% of the state's registered voters—were removed from the voter rolls in the last 20 months. This alarming trend threatens the integrity of democracy by potentially disenfranchising countless eligible voters. Ensuring widespread participation is vital to protecting the future of our democracy.
what to expect:
Each stop on the tour is tailored to meet the unique needs and energy of the campus or community. Our voter engagement pop-ups can take many forms, including:
Rides/March to the Polls
Live DJ and Entertainment
Free Food via Local Food Trucks
And more exciting, student-driven, non-partisan civic activities
Attendees use Woke Vote’s Voter Empowerment Hub, which is a non-partisan platform that provides vital resources. This includes voter registration verification, a local election directory, a pledge to vote, tools for finding polling locations for Election Day or early voting, the ability to request a mail-in ballot, and a direct option to register to vote through the hub.
