Are you tired of politicians from urban areas making policies that harm rural areas? As lifelong rural residents, we are too.

ย 

There is a solution: rural areas need better representation in state and national government.

ย 

But hereโ€™s the problem: too many eligible rural voters donโ€™t vote. Many of us plan to run to town on Election Day, but then the day gets away from us, bad weather hits, machinery breaks down, or a kid is sick.ย  Other voters live far from polling locations, hindering their ability to vote.

ย 

According to the latest data, about one-third of rural residents didnโ€™t vote in the last Presidential election.

1. Check your voter status with your secretary of state/board of elections. You can Google "check my voter status" and your state's name.

ย 

2. Make sure you are registered and active.

ย 

3. In the fall, request an early ballot. Consult your state board of elections for details on when.

ย 

4. The most important step is to ensure your friends and family get this message, too.

ย 

Share this article and ask your friends to share it.ย  If we spread the word, we can make a huge difference in rural America.
