registration drives
Voter enrollment efforts
Registration drives are organized campaigns to sign people up for something—most often voter registration, but also for schools, events, or services.
The term implies systematic outreach, typically with volunteers canvassing neighborhoods or setting up tables in public spaces: The league sponsored voter registration drives on college campuses.
Drive here suggests a concentrated, goal-oriented push.
