Michelle Obama Urges Americans to Vote Early, By Mail

‘Fair and safe voting is gonna be more important than ever this year’

Former first lady Michelle Obama urged Americans to vote by mail or vote early ahead of the approaching November elections amid the coronavirus pandemic. 

Obama called on Americans to make sure they and those around them are registered to vote and are educated on their options for early voting or voting by mail. Her message was part of a video message released Tuesday by When We All Vote, an organization the former first lady helped launch in 2018 to boost participation in elections. 

“Fair and safe voting is gonna be more important than ever this year, and that’s why When We All Vote is fighting to expand vote-by-mail, in-person early voting and online voter registration,” she said.
