#CRIPTHEVOTE EVENTS SEPT-NOV 2016
It’s hard to believe there are approximately 80 days until Election Day 2016! The co-partners of #CripTheVote, Gregg Beratan, Andrew Pulrang, and Alice Wong have been busy organizing and planning some activities from now until Tuesday, November 8, 2016.
Here is a list of our upcoming events for September – November 2016. Some details may be subject to change. For updates, check the #CripTheVote hashtag on Twitter or ‘Like’ our Facebook group.
We heard loud and clear from the disability community that there is a need for thoughtful conversations about disability policies and issues. We are grateful for the way the community has taken ownership and responsibility for this campaign. #CripTheVote will continue well after Election Day with a broader scope outside of Presidential elections. We will announce our next steps sometime this November!!
