Georgia groups offer incentives to make an early voting plan at The Tubman Museum in Macon

Need help navigating your ballot? Haven’t made a plan to get to the polls?

Nonpartisan groups from across Georgia are offering incentives in Macon for those seeking help with voting before the presidential election in 11 days.

In honor of national Vote Early Day on Saturday, the nonprofit Go Vote Georgia will host a “United to Vote Early” rally at the Harriet Tubman African American Museum.

“We develop the infrastructure, execute joint strategies and employ new tools and technology to assure a government that is more responsive to the needs of our constituencies,” a news release from Go Vote Georgia said.

The event, held from 12 to 3 p.m., will offer free museum tours and admission, food, youth activities, live music and transportation assistance.

Nashville rapper Starlito, who has worked with Lil Wayne and Young Jeezy, will perform live alongside Macon-based rapper Ray Wilson and Macon-based DJ SLIMM3.

Anyone who needs a ride to the event can contact Randy Faigin, state coordinator for Vote Riders at randy@voteriders.org or 404-210-9647.

Attendees can also receive free rides to the polls.

Organizations including Black Voters Matter, Collective Renaissance GA, Peach Concerned Citizens, RepGA and Voter Riders will offer tools and education to check your voter status, build a multilingual ballot plan, understand amendment questions on the ballot and advocate for inclusive, equitable access to voting.
