A new chatbot based service is making it a lot easier for anyone to register to vote.
HelloVote launched on Thursday according to CNNMoney. It was launched to help register people in a minute by sending a few texts.During the last presidential election, about 33 million people were reported as not registered, according to data from the U.S. Census Bureau. Another 28 million, of 13% of eligible voters, did not respond, weren’t asked or refused to comment on their registration status.
HelloVote’s goal is to get as many Americans to the polls on Tuesday, November 8 for the upcoming presidential election.
