Twitter is launching a voter registration campaign

Who said enlightened democracy was dying in the combative cesspool of social media?

Twitter has launched a voter registration campaign in partnership with TurboVote called #BeAVoter. 

Beginning Monday, Twitter will show users a prompt encouraging them to register to vote. The prompt will also include a tweet users can share to further encourage their followers to vote. 

Today, Twitter is launching our #BeAVoter campaign to promote increased, informed participation in the 2018 US election.
