We have launched the Promote the Migrant Vote campaign to support migrant and BAME communities to engage with, register, and vote in the upcoming #GeneralElection on 12 December 2019! 💥
Here are some ways you can support the campaign...
✨ Support us on social media! Like us on Facebook Promote the Migrant Vote, and follow us on Twitter @MigrantVote / www.twitter.com/MigrantVote - and invite all your friends to do the same!
✨ Donate anything you can contribute to our Crowdfunder (link below!). We are raising money to produce and distribute resources in different languages, and to support migrant groups to organise registration drives across the country: www.crowdfunder.co.uk/promote-the-migrant-vote
✨ Learn about registering to vote, who is eligible, and how to support people to register to vote on our website www.promotemigrantvote.org.uk !
✨ Make sure all your friends and families are registered to vote! gov.uk/register-to-vote
✨ Organise a voter registration drive in your area! If you are interested in running an event to help register migrant and BAME communities to vote, check the action kit on the website, and get in touch with us at voters@migrantsorganise.org
More than *9 million people who are eligible to vote in the UK are at risk of not being able to have their say in the snap general election in December*. Many millions of them are not registered to vote or need support to exercise their democratic rights.
We must support our members and communities to raise their voices during this election, to ensure that the experiences of migrants facing uncertainty, fear and isolation are on the national agenda at this election and that our interests are properly represented.
