Created by U.S. Vote Foundation, the Voter Journey Map educates and supports U.S. citizens across geographies and brings voting to life using the Identity Digital us.vote domain name

ARLINGTON, Va. & BELLEVUE, Wash.: U.S. Vote Foundation and Identity Digital, a leader in connecting the online world with domain names and related technologies, announced the launch of the us.vote website and Voter Journey Map, available today. The us.vote website serves as the primary destination for voter outreach campaigns and offers a new way to simplify the voting process for American citizens around the world.

The new website and Voter Journey Map helps educate U.S. citizens at home and abroad on how to vote with ease and creates interactive, personalized voting plans. It guides first-time and experienced voters through a series of questions to develop a customized map containing the steps, information and services needed to navigate complicated U.S. voting processes.

Voting in the United States is complicated by varying state-specific regulations. It is not a streamlined, uniform process and can change for individuals depending on location, circumstances, preferences, abilities and more. These complexities have proven to be a significant barrier for voters. For example, turnout for the 4.4 million overseas voters is less than 7.8% due to lack of awareness, assumptions and deeply ingrained misconceptions about the process. Additionally, there are 38 million U.S. voters with disabilities that may need special accommodations.

"Enhancing voter education in America is crucial. U.S. Vote Foundation has demonstrated remarkable effectiveness in leveraging us.vote to provide an invaluable resource for American voters," said Akram Atallah, CEO of Identity Digital. "They have transformed their online presence to provide an immersive and dynamic experience, which will hopefully close the turnout gap for American voters.”

"For nearly two decades, U.S. Vote Foundation has worked to bring best-in-class voter services to millions of voters," said Michael Steele, U.S. Vote Foundation Chairman. “The us.vote website and Voter Journey Map combine the optimism and creative innovation necessary to engage with today’s voters as we help them in their journey to the ballot box. Our new website establishes a centralized online location for voter outreach programs that are vitally needed across all states.”

U.S. Vote Foundation’s choice to use the us.vote web address makes it easier than ever for citizens to find the information they need to exercise their right to vote. The new platform exemplifies how organizations can use Identity Digital top-level domains (TLDs) to leverage both sides of the dot to create authentic digital identities.
