CIVIC ENGAGEMENT: Souls to the Polls Brings Celebration and Early Voting to Atlantic City
The Fellowship of Churches of Atlantic City and Vicinity provided jitney rides, music and food to encourage voter participation ahead of the Nov. 3 election.
Registered voters from Atlantic County were driven via Jitney from the Second Baptist Church parking lot directly to Quaremba Hall an early voting site in Atlantic City. The Jitney then brought voters back to the church.
The Second Baptist Church parking lot was alive with the spirit of celebration. People could be seen dancing to music provided by DJ B Hop and also celebrating with food provided by food trucks and vendors.
On Thursday, October 15th. Kaleem Shabazz President of The NAACP Atlantic City Branch discusses Souls to The Polls and why it is important to come out and vote. Shabazz also discussed the various options one to vote.
