This blog hasn’t been all that political since the summer months, despite my heavy involvement in politics. That’ll change over the next few months, but only when I have some original perspective to offer. I don’t want to recycle material from mainstream media or the blogosphere.
The day I turned 18, I registered to vote. I’m happy to say that I finally received my voting card in the mail today.
In my high school, I’ve heard a lot of confusion about registering. Some people think they have to go to the town hall or the DMV, and others think they have to go online somewhere.
That somewhere is Rock the Vote. Click that link, select “register to vote”, and fill out the form. Once the form is filled out, print it, sign it, and mail it in. In fewer than two months, you’ll have a voter registration card in the mail. That’s it!
Yuck, I just used “blogosphere” in a post. Where’s my soap?
You know what’s frustrating?! Voting is November..8th? (correct me if I’m wrong)
…my 18th birthday is November 12th :’(
SO CLOSE!
..yet so far away
Don’t think of it like that. The deadline to register is in October, anyway, so you’re not really that close. Delaware’s, for instance, is October 11, 2008.
Why Delaware?
It came up first in Google.
