National Absentee Voting Guide!

I dropped my son Ethan at school at GW last week and as I was leaving our nation's capital, I realized he was going to be three thousand miles away from his polling place and had no idea how to register to vote absentee and neither did any of his roommates.

When I discovered there wasn't an up to date one-stop-shopping guide for registering to vote absentee, we went to work!

Trying to get out the info and knocking on doors to educate people about voting info ,you are right alot of people don't know where their local polling place is.

Depending on the state it may be too late make changes so that they can vote absentee.

In some states the deadline is in just two weeks.

Pass this information on to everyone that you know because it applies to lots of people - like displaced hurricane victims.

As part of a get-out-the-vote drive it is VERY important for everyone who can vote early or by absentee to do so. Expect Republican controlled states and counties to go to great lengths to reduce turnout in minority populated precincts. The intentionally long lines will be shorter the more of us who vote absentee or early. We will be freed up to help others, particularly first-time voters and senior voters, get to the polls. If a personal emergency arises, we will already have voted.
