Today, Tuesday, March 10, is Primary Election Day, when Mississippians will choose the candidates who will move forward to the November General Election for the U.S. House and Senate.
Polls are open now and will remain open until 7:00 this evening.
You can find your polling place here.
One of our most important civic obligations is to exercise our right to vote. We all have seen how the actions of our elected officials affect our teachers, our children, and our public schools. It is important to vote in every election, including federal, because those who do not vote regularly can be placed on inactive voter status and, over time, be purged from the voter rolls.
Here are ways you can help ensure a responsive federal delegation that supports our public schools:
- Know where candidates for U.S. House and Senate stand on vouchers, school funding, protections for special education, and support for public schools
- VOTE and be sure other registered voters in your household vote
- Take a friend or two with you to the polls
- Use your social media to remind others to vote
Please help us spread the word and get lots of public school supporters to the polls. Together, we’ve got this!
