WAKE UP GEAUX VOTE is the Urban League of Louisiana’s non-partisan statewide voter education and mobilization effort that is activated every election cycle to register new voters, to provide relevant election updates and information about real-time ballot initiatives and candidates, and to get people to the polls. The initiative has included high school and college campus voter registration drives, activating 250 canvassers across the state, candidate forums, voter education events, social media campaigns; and more.
