According to the U.S. Census Bureau's most recent voter turnout statistics, the most prevalent reason that Americans fail to make it to the polls is "too busy, conflicting schedule." On top of their hectic schedules, the average employee spends 52 minutes per day commuting to and from work. In order to help voters allocate time to head to the polls this year, GoToMeeting is facilitating flexible work options to give employees the opportunity to vote and make an impact on the decisions that will impact the futur of the country.



In today's modern business environment, employees increasingly rely on virtual technology to communicate, with the expectation that they can get their jobs done from anywhere on any device. That's why more than 200,000 customers depend on GoToMeeting to power their more than 50 million meetings a year. With a simple and intuitive interface across all platforms, GoToMeeting's high definition video and clear audio makes it feel like users are actually meeting in the same room, empowering them to create meaningful business relationships. GoToMeeting supports up to 100 participants with one-click meetings that include recording options, screen sharing capabilities, and drawing tools, among other easy-to-use features.
