South Asian Network's Desi Vote 2020 Campaign
“The United States Presidential election is on Tuesday, November 3rd. Californians will also be voting on important local elections and propositions,” says a press release of the South Asian Network (SAN). It adds:
…, only those who are registered to vote will be able to participate in one of the most decisive elections in our country's history.
It's simple to do:
1. Go to https://registertovote.ca.gov/ where you can register to vote or check on your registration status.
That's it! There is no step 2 (except actually voting, of course).
