Jones Center for Leadership and Service, University of Tennessee

Calling all UTK Faculty, staff, students, alumni, and friends (so pretty much every single person reading this) - help us beat Florida in the Voter Competition.

The purpose of the challenge is to ensure that citizens of the Vol Nation and Gator Nation are ready to cast their ballots during the midterm elections in November. Of course, the secondary purpose is to beat Florida in anything and everything.

There are three steps to the competition:

Check registration status.
Register to vote if needed.
Sign up for election reminders. (you can immediately opt out)

The direct link to help us score against Florida is:
