Warning: you will get texted so use your disposal number.

With all the news about citizens discovering their voter status has been lapsed, and new rules for being a voter, everyone should check.

But also, sometimes you forget. I have new neighbors who finished moving a month ago, and when I asked if they changed their mailing address and checked their voting status, we discovered they weren’t.

How does one get a disposal number?

Just use some fake easy to remember number, like 0118 999 881 999 119 725 3, for instance.

Doesn’t matter where you are in the world, vote if you can. I’m lucky enough to be in an area of the US where we get mail ballots, so the worst I have to deal with are right wingers complaining mail in ballots lead to fraud and then doing it themselves by dumping mail.

If you’re in Michigan the secretary of state website has a registration check and sample ballots but other sites have sample ballots too. That allows time to look into candidates, review voting history, maybe watch an interview or two, before going to vote.

This is the kind of election post that’s necessary.

I hate seeing “Remeber to go vote!” posts the week before an election as if that’s all you need to do. In most places, you need some kind of enrollment activity before they let you vote on the day, bring ID, etc etc.

Only accepts US phone numbers, so probably not for US citizens living abroad.

Phone number is not required. I left it blank and it worked.

Don’t tell me whom I should or should not know.

Registered to vote, pedant.
