Dear Dartmouth community members,
With midterm elections taking place tomorrow, we want to make sure that you have the info you need to cast your vote, express your views, do your research, and connect with others in the community.
During this election season and many others, Dartmouth has long been a meeting ground for candidates and policy advisers from all points of view. I want to recognize the valuable work of the Rockefeller Center for Public Policy, the Dickey Center for International Understanding, Dartmouth Dialogues, many student organizations and leaders, and countless staff who have created opportunities for open and respectful exchange of ideas. These discussions are a reminder of how our community comes together to learn from one another.
Prepare Your Voting Plan
If you’re eligible, please vote! This is one important way to make your voice heard. New Hampshire voters may register to vote at the polls on Nov. 3. Before you go, review the State of NH eligibility requirements, and visit Dartmouth Votes for helpful information.
Connect with Others
Take advantage of opportunities to come together on and after election day.

- If you’re planning an event or activity, please review our community’s freedom of expression policies and resources. To learn more, contact Ed McKenna, director of civic engagement, expression, and leadership.
In the days ahead, let’s keep listening to one another with curiosity and openness, especially when we may not agree. Thank you for the care and respect you bring to our community of learning.
In community,
