Eight Mississippi electric cooperatives spent Sept. 17 out at community colleges helping students register to vote.

Sept. 17 was National Voter Registration Day.

The cooperatives that participated were 4-County Electric, Coahoma Electric, Coast Electric, Northcentral Electric Cooperative, Singing River Electric, Southern Pine Electric, Southwest Electric, and Tallahatchie Valley Electric Power.

The Mississippi events this year are part of a nationwide effort led by Co-ops Vote. The annual civic engagement holiday had over 3,000 community partners hosting events last year.

Voter registration drives were held on multiple campuses throughout the day.
