DU this -- are ACA navigators doing enough to register voters?

Hey guys -- Demos and Project Vote are working hard to get people involved in voting, and it's ESPECIALLY important in this off-year election to make sure that everyone gets out to vote.

Right now there's been a lot of Republican pressure for the White House to soft-peddle voter registration when people sign up for ACA. We need to fix that because “several million Americans already have lost out on the opportunity to register to vote,” and “millions more will be denied this right if the administration does not take action in the coming months.”

Right now this MSNBC poll has only 421 votes. Can we improve that number and show the White House that we care about registering people to vote at a time when Republicans are trying to keep as many away from the polls as possible?
