Another National Voter Registration Day is in the books and what a day it was! We had a great time connecting with so many voters and future voters.

Thank you to everyone who stopped by our table to confirm their registration online or make their mark on our board. We heard from nearly 200 passersby and over 95% were registered!

In fact, we only registered a handful of new voters this year because so many of you were already registered! We did help almost 50 of you complete, verify or update your registration information, though, and we got a head start on making plans to vote in the upcoming elections.

But we couldn’t have done any of it without our student and faculty volunteers! They came prepared to motivate and inform the Clayton community and help them get ! To our volunteers: THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU, each and every one of you, for sharing your time, your energy, and your cookies!

To everyone, make sure you’re following us right here for more voter education updates as we get closer to November. There is a LOT on the ballot these midterms and you won’t want to miss out or be surprised in the voting booth. Stay informed by checking our Elections guide linked in our bio.

Clayton State Library would like to wish everyone a safe and joyful Fourth of July weekend! Whether you are gathering with family and friends, relaxing at the beach, attending a community event, or enjoying a favorite grill-side meal, we hope you find time to celebrate and create meaningful memories.

As we commemorate the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declaration of Independence, we reflect on the ideals that helped shape the nation, including life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. This milestone offers an opportunity to honor our shared history while recognizing the many voices, experiences, and contributions that continue to strengthen our communities today.

As we celebrate, let us also embrace the values of freedom, respect, and belonging that help ensure everyone has the opportunity to thrive.
