Voter Information

When you vote, you choose who speaks and advocates for you at every level of government. It’s been encouraging to see historic voter turnout, both in Rhode Island and nationwide. When more people vote, our elected officials better represent our needs.

Don’t forget to vote in Rhode Island’s special referenda election on March 2, 2021. Voters will decide whether to authorize the state to borrow money to make investments in specific initiatives. Click here to learn more about the specific bond questions, which call for a total of $400M in bonds.
