The Election
Protection Coalition is once again hosting the 1-866-OUR-VOTE hotline,
where voters can call to report problems and receive advice on what
to do. The Election Protection Coalition is a nonpartisan alliance of
civil rights and civic organizations committed to protecting the rights
of all voters to cast their ballot. The hotline (1-866-OURVOTE/687-8683)
is an immediate, on- the-spot resource staffed by lawyers, law students
and other volunteers trained to resolve voting problems.
