National Voter Registration Day
Below is a very informative and complex site …
which (as far as I can tell) is non-partisan.
I explored the Toolkit for Organizations and found a cool interactive map of the U.S.
that shows state by state the voter ID rules.
I love the positive message of this site and
applaud the intense effort of getting potential voters registered and voting!

Here is a little about National Voter Registration Day:
National
Voter Registration Day is a nonpartisan civic holiday celebrating our democracy.
First observed in 2012, it has quickly gained momentum ever since. Nearly 3
million voters have registered to vote on the holiday to date.
Celebrated on the fourth
Tuesday of September, National Voter Registration Day will next take place on
September 22, 2020. The holiday has been endorsed by the National
Association of Secretaries of State (NASS), the National Association of State
Election Directors (NASED), the U.S. Election Assistance Commission (EAC), and
the National Association of Election Officials (The Election Center).
Every
year millions of Americans find themselves unable to vote because they miss a
registration deadline, don’t update their registration, or aren’t sure how to
register. National Voter Registration Day wants to make sure everyone has the
opportunity to vote. On Tuesday September 22, 2020 volunteers and organizations
from all over the country will “hit the streets” in a single day of coordinated
field, technology and media efforts. National Voter Registration Day seeks to
create broad awareness of voter registration opportunities to reach tens of
thousands of voters who may not register otherwise.
