Votenet Solutions Presents “It's Time to Commit... to Your Voting Success!” with CEO Michael Tuteur and Dr. Melissa Michelson
Washington, DC (PRWEB) February 19, 2014 -- Votenet Solutions, the leading provider of online voting, balloting software and electioneering solutions to increase participation, will present a free webinar titled “It's Time to Commit... to Your Voting Success!” with political science professor and author Melissa R. Michelson and Votenet CEO Michael Tuteur on Wednesday, February 26 at 2:00 PM EST.
This resource packed webinar will discuss how Votenet’s new Commit to Vote feature can help organizations use social science to increase voter turnout by getting potential voters to commit to vote and then follow through on that commitment. Michelson and Tuteur will offer tips to engage voters by:
- Using the science behind obtaining commitments to boost participation and turnout
- Creating simple, effective campaigns to remind voters of commitments
- Asking for a hard commitment to vote (and receiving it)
- Motivating members to make both small and large commitments
- Encouraging voters to contact people they know and other potential voters
- Empowering voters to set personalized reminders
“Social cues and pressure are key drivers for voter engagement and voter turnout,” said Votenet CEO Michael Tuteur. “Social science has shown the addition of a social contract that gets voters to commit to participate increases turnout. The key is finding the right motivators and securing the initial commitment.”
