Get Out the Vote 2024

APF’s Get Out The Vote 2024 (GOTV 2024) campaign encourages the Pakistani-American and South Asian American communities in the United States to vote in the U.S. presidential elections, as well as elections at the state and local levels. The campaign focuses on the following goals:

• to connect with voting-age Pakistani-Americans who could pledge to vote in November;

• to create and circulate resources that elevate awareness in the United States of Pakistani-Americans and South Asian Americans as a voting bloc;

• to convene community, student, business and public leaders to share experiences and lessons learned from their civic activities; and

• to raise the profile of Pakistani-Americans engaged in parallel get out the vote efforts across the United States.
