BILLINGS — Western Native Voice has announced the launch of its “Snag Dat Vote Tour,” which will kick off Sept. 16 on the Blackfeet Reservation.

The organization said the tour aims to energize Native American communities across Montana and encourage voter registration and participation in the upcoming Nov. 5 presidential election.

The Snag Dat Vote Tour will feature a two-day event at each stop, combining community engagement, voter education and outreach, and entertainment to build Native power at the polls.

Each tour location will begin with a Community Gathering, open to all ages, that includes a free meal and an informational session about voting and civic engagement.

WNV organizers and staff will spend Day 2 canvassing the area, registering community members to vote, and ensuring they are prepared for Election Day. That evening, we are inviting the 18-and-over community to join us for a Voter Celebration featuring live music and a comedy show with some of the top Native American comedians in the country.
