The Republican National Committee is rolling out a campaign to bolster early voting ahead of the 2024 cycle.

Dubbed “Bank Your Vote,” the initiative aims to educate Republican voters on how to “lock in their votes as early as possible,” including through absentee voting and in-person early voting.

“To beat Joe Biden and the Democrats in 2024, we must ensure that Republicans bank as many pre-Election Day votes as possible,” RNC Chairwoman Ronna McDaniel said in a statement. “Banking votes early needs to be the focus of every single Republican campaign in the country.”

Leaders of the House and Senate campaign arms appointed Rep. Byron Donalds (R-FL) and Sen. Bill Hagerty (R-TN) to co-chair the initiative. Republicans established BankYourVote.com and plan to partner with state parties and campaigns to outline the processes for 56 states and territories.

“With innovative technology to educate voters and safeguards in place to secure the process, Republicans are prepared to win up-and-down the ballot in 2024,” Donalds said in a statement.

Bank Your Vote will tap into GOP infrastructure, including the party’s digital and data team as well as its election integrity team, to enhance the effort.

“To take back the White House and Senate and strengthen our House majority in 2024, Republicans must play the game by today’s rules, which means maximizing our efforts to bank votes before Election Day. We cannot afford to sacrifice most of the opportunities to bank votes in key states while Democrats run up the score,” Hagerty said.

Many Republicans have often cried foul about early voting procedures, such as ballot harvesting, a process by which political operatives can transport a ballot from a voter’s home to a polling center.

Recently, some party leaders have stressed that complaints about early voting could hinder the party in elections and stifle turnout.

“Our voters need to vote early,” McDaniel told Fox News last year. “I have said this over and over again. There were many in 2020 saying, ‘Don’t vote by mail. Don’t vote early.’ And we have to stop that and understand that if Democrats are getting ballots in for a month, we can’t expect to get it all done in one day.”
