El Pueblo (c3)
2025 Programs
El Pueblo will continue efforts in GOTV, voter education, and newcomer support. We aim to increase Latine voter registration and turnout in 2026. El Pueblo will also support individuals seeking U.S. citizenship, continuing collaborations with the Mexican Consulate and USCIS. Votemos NC will expand its impact by exploring the transformation of its website into a comprehensive news platform, offering timely updates on legislative sessions and post-primary election results.
2024 Programs
EP and LF will educate, engage and get Latine voters to the polls by expanding canvassing efforts, creating and disseminating Spanish-language voter guides to ensure that all Latine voters have access to crucial election information in their language, and by spearheading poll protection initiatives to combat voter intimidation.
