2025 - Winner for Distinguished Voter Education and Communications Initiatives

Hey Neighbor, is a community-based voter education campaign that uses friendly, neighbor-to-neighbor messaging to make election information clear and accessible. At its core is a refrigerator magnet with a QR code linking to a centralized webpage with early voting details, the My Voter Page, and the full election calendar. The Hey Neighbor theme extends across print, social media, press releases, and a quarterly newspaper column that addresses community questions in a conversational, nonpartisan tone. By combining consistent branding, trusted local media, and centralized information, the program reduces confusion, highlights accurate information, and fosters cost-effective election administration. For voters, Hey Neighbor improves access to clear, timely, and trustworthy election information, increasing confidence and reducing confusion.
