More Information about the 2022 Voter Challenge:

The Howard H. Baker Jr. Center for Public Policy at the University of Tennessee has challenged the Bob Graham Center for Public Service at the University of Florida this fall to a voter competition. The challenge is to compete over which school can get the most people to complete the voter registration and election reminder process. 

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.

There are three steps to the competition:

  1. Check registration status.
  2. Register to vote if needed.
  3. Sign-up for election reminders. 

All three have to be completed to count for the competition. All members of the Vol Nation are welcome to participate! 

The winner of the competition will be based on the number of those who complete all three steps. If you are already registered to vote, you are welcome to sign-up for election reminders, which will count toward the competition.

The competition starts on Wednesday, August 24, and ends on Friday, September 23, the day before the Tennessee vs. Florida football game. The winner will be announced on Saturday, September 24.
