Election Hero Day is a nonpartisan, national celebration recognizing the work that election officials, their staff, and poll workers make to ensure a safe, secure voting experience for all eligible Americans.
Founded in 2020 to honor election workers as they navigated an unprecedented and challenging election environment and successfully supported voters, the holiday sends a clear message that we support our friends and neighbors who play a vital role in preserving our democracy. They are our election heroes! Learn more here.
In 2025, the League of Women Voters became the managing partner of Election Hero Day. This is a perfect collaboration, as LWV is a nonpartisan voting rights organization dedicated to empowering voters and working with elections officials nationwide to ensure all voters can be heard through the ballot box.
LWV - AH - BG - MP is packing goody bags for election workers in our communities on October 15. Learn more about how you can support by clicking the link below.
