We also worked with other organizations to help people get to the polls for local elections. Additionally, miscellaneous costs incurred are included in this expense. 59700 61000 0 We Must Vote, Inc. conducted a Rural Rapid Response Initiative, primarily across the Mississippi Delta region. We visited homes and conducted meetings giving the rural residents information on voting and answering questions that many of them had about their impact.
