NAHB Unveils Virtual 'Get Out The Vote' Election Web Service

NAHB unveiled a new, virtual "Get Out The Vote" election Web site service that allows members, their families and their employees to register to vote, conduct their own voter registration drives, support their candidates and get an absentee ballot.

NAHB unveiled the Web service — Election 2004 — during the recent spring board of directors meeting in Washington, D.C. It is available on the NAHB Web site at www.NAHB.org/elections.  

The election Web site contains helpful features, including:

• Information on the 2004 U.S. presidential election
• Up-to-date national political poll results
• Information on NAHB's involvement in the 2004 elections
• Instructions for making a contribution to a political party or candidate
• Donation and volunteer sign-up forms for the George Bush and John Kerry presidential campaigns
• Information on BUILD-PAC, one of the most successful and influential political action committees in Washington.

Members who wish to donate to either candidate are encouraged to use the Web site and include the candidates' tracking numbers:

The tracking number indicates to the candiate's campaign how much support he is receiving from the building industry.

To register to vote, go to the Home Builders Helping Americans Vote Web site.

Member associations also can post the Home Builders Helping Americans Vote logo and link to the site on their home page. NAHB will be working with its state and local association partners to spread this information to as many members as possible.
