REPORT A VOTING PROBLEM
DOCUMENT IT.
REPORT IT.
If you see something that appears to interfere with voting, focus on what you directly observed. This page does not decide whether misconduct occurred; it routes concerns to the people who can investigate or help.
IMMEDIATE DANGER OR THREATS?If there is violence, a threat of violence, or an immediate safety emergency at a voting location, call 911 first. DOJ guidance says polling-place violence, threats, or intimidation should first be reported to local police, then to the Department of Justice.
Voting access / intimidation
Problems such as intimidation, discrimination, accessibility barriers, registration issues, or interference with a voter’s ability to cast a ballot can be reported to Election Protection and the DOJ Civil Rights Division.

Suspected election crime
If you believe an election crime is occurring, the FBI directs the public to report it through 1-800-CALL-FBI, tips.fbi.gov, or a local FBI field office.

Bad voting information
If you see false or misleading information about where, when, or how to vote, save the original post/message and report it to your state or local election office. Election Protection can also help voters verify the correct information.
FIND ELECTION OFFICE ↗
Law-enforcement or ICE activity
If law-enforcement or immigration-enforcement conduct near a voting location appears to intimidate voters or interfere with voting, document the conduct from a safe place and report the facts through the same voting-rights channels. An agency’s presence by itself is not proof of election misconduct.

WHAT TO DOCUMENT
WRITE DOWN THE FACTS WHILE THEY ARE FRESH.
- Exact date, time, and location.
- What you personally saw or heard, in plain language.
- Names, badge numbers, agency markings, vehicle numbers, signs, usernames, URLs, or other identifying details if visible.
- Photos/video only when lawful and safe; do not interfere with voting or election workers.
- Names/contact information for willing witnesses.
- Keep the original file, message, or post rather than only a screenshot when possible.
Do not publish another voter’s private information, ballot choices, ID, home address, or other sensitive personal data.
Let’s Go Vote This Time is a nonpartisan voter-access project, not an investigative agency. Reports should go to the appropriate election authority, Election Protection, law enforcement, or civil-rights agency. Avoid labeling an event “fraud,” “cheating,” or “intimidation” as an established fact unless an appropriate authority has determined that.
