Voting Matters is a campaign sponsored by Greater Good Greenville<\/a> and the Greenville Chamber<\/a> for the purpose of increasing voter turnout in Greenville County for the 2024 elections.<\/p>\n

We exist to inspire more people (regardless of candidate, party or issue) to register, learn about the candidates and vote in the June 11 primary election and November 7 general election.<\/p>\n
