Facebook:

With the US elections less than five months away, today Facebook is launching the largest voting information campaign in American history. We’re building a new Voting Information Center that will give millions of people accurate information about voting, while also giving them the tools they need to register and make their voices heard at the ballot box. Our goal is to help register 4 million voters this year using Facebook, Instagram and Messenger, and help them get to the polls so they can hold our leaders accountable. This goal is double the estimated 2 million people we helped register in both 2018 and 2016.

I am biased here. I am not a fan of Facebook. But I am a fan of any effort to fix the steady drumbeat of false political narrative. And even more a fan of efforts to get people registered to vote.

My initial reaction here was an eye-roll so deep I had to steady myself afterwards. But if Facebook is making an effort to make it easier to register, to give people facts, especially where voting is concerned, how can I be anything but for it?

Make it so, Facebook.
