Last Day to Register to Vote

I am not a huge fan of posting multiple articles in the same day under this current Blogger format, however this subject in important. Regardless of which "side" you feel you belong to in politics, this information is useful for you.

Today is the LAST DAY
you can register to vote
and be allowed to participate
in the November Election!

If you want your voice to be heard at the polls in November, and you have not registered to vote, you need to do so Today. There are serious issues coming in Missouri as well as America. For an idea of what they are you can read the Secretary of State's Ballot info , or the St. Louis County Board of Elections Ballot Info. You can't have a say on these issues if you are not a registered voter.

To register to vote at this point you should do so in person to ensure it is handled in time, and the sooner the better. To learn who can register and where you can go to do so, visit the St. Louis County Board of Elections Voter Information Page on Registration, found here. At this late date, your best bet would likely be to go to:

Saint. Louis County
Board of Election's Office
12 Sunnen Dr.,
St. Louis Mo, 63143 (map).

You can still get the forms for various places (including online here), and mail them in along with a photo copy of your driver's licence or other State I.D.. As long as it is post marked today or earlier it should be accepted. However, a friendly representative at the Election Board advised that at this late date it would be best if people handled it in person at their office.

Finally, for registered voters who identify themselves as Democrats or Republicans (unfortunately, Independents like myself are out of luck) there is still a need for election judges and volunteers at many polling places. To learn more about becoming an election judge visit this page at the St. Louis County Election Board website. Also, The Secretary of State has a new initiative to try to get more poll workers / volunteers. If you would like to assist with the election process, be sure to check out "It's Your Turn" at the Secretary of State's website.

Hope to see you all at the polls!
