Missouri Voter Protection Coalition (MOVPC) Voter Resources 






  • Election Protection - https://www.movpc.org/election-protection - 866-OUR-VOTE (866-687-8683) - Have questions about voter registration deadlines, requesting absentee or mail-in ballots, or how to vote in-person during early voting or on Election Day? Call or text 866-OUR-VOTE (866-687-8683) to speak with a trained Election Protection volunteer. 


  • To volunteer for Election Protection sign up here: https://protectthevote.net/  Every eligible voter deserves to have their vote counted. That’s the cornerstone of our democracy. And we all suffer when eligible, registered voters are turned away from the polls, unable to find their polling place, or otherwise blocked from exercising their rights.  That’s why every election year, we recruit, train, and deploy thousands of Election Protection volunteers across the nation. These trained, nonpartisan volunteers serve as voters’ first line of defense against confusing voting rules, outdated infrastructure, rampant misinformation, and needless obstacles to the ballot box.
