As Election Day approaches on March 12, 2024, Mississippi Black Pages (MBP) is proud to announce a strategic partnership with Mississippi MOVE, Inc. to ensure that every citizen has access to the polls. Together, we are committed to removing barriers to voting and empowering communities across Gulfport, Hattiesburg, and Metro Jackson to exercise their democratic right.
Why Your Vote Matters
At MBP, we believe that active civic engagement is essential for building thriving communities and shaping the future of our state. Every vote has the power to influence policies, elect representatives, and drive positive change in our society. As business owners and entrepreneurs, your voices matter, and your participation in the electoral process is crucial for advancing the interests of our community.
Providing Access to the Polls
Unfortunately, many individuals face obstacles when it comes to accessing polling locations, whether due to transportation challenges, work schedules, or other barriers. That's why MBP and Mississippi MOVE, Inc. are joining forces to provide rides to the polls on Election Day. Mississippi MOVE Roll 2 The Polls is transportation assistance, ensuring that every eligible voter has the opportunity to cast their ballot and make their voice heard.
