Election Day is Tuesday, Nov. 2 More Info

Be sure to vote!

Dear Fellow Rider,
There is just a week left before Election Day. That means there are just seven days left to identify motorcycle-friendly candidates to support and then vote for, and to encourage others to do the same.

Elections are the voting public’s opportunity to select their leaders. Leaders who will make laws that may expand or limit the riding community’s freedoms for years to come. Therefore, it is critical for motorcyclist to identify motorcycle-friendly candidates, assist their run for office, Vote Like A Motorcyclist, and encourage their fellow riders to also Vote Like A Motorcyclist.

Please note, the American Motorcyclist Association (AMA) is a nonpartisan organization and does not endorse political candidates. However, we encourage riders to cast their ballots based on candidates' positions on motorcycling-related issues, as well as other issues of importance to them.

Please join the AMA’s Vote Like A Motorcyclist campaign and utilize some or all of our election-related tools:

If you have any questions about getting involved these last seven days, please contact the AMA’s grassroots team at grassroots@ama-cycle.org.

For everyone who Votes Like A Motorcyclist, encourages others to also Vote Like A Motorcyclist, and/or volunteers on a motorcycle-friendly candidate’s campaign, thank you. Your efforts contribute to promoting the motorcycle lifestyle and protecting the future of motorcycling.
