If you need to check on the status of your Virginia voter registration please go the State Board of Elections website here
If you don't find your registration where you think it should be you should call the count/city where you registered. Please email a link to this site to any of your friends who are not sure if or where they are registered to vote.
ABSENTEE VOTING
You can request an absentee ballot until Tuesday October 28. I recommend faxing the form to the county/city registrar where you vote. If you are going home by November 1st you can vote early in person by going to your county/city registrar. If you are not sure where you vote or how to contact your county/city registrar check the like above. You can find the absentee ballot request form here: VA Absentee Ballot.
The form can be confusing so if you need any help with this stuff at all please contact your registrar or you can email me at spinkstj@vcu.edu
MEETING
Our next Meeting will be this Thursday 10.23.08 in Virginia Room B at 8:30pm in the Student Commons. We will be talking about volunteer opportunities and giving away campaign stuff.
Campaign Invasion This Saturday
The Virginia Young Democrats Young Voter Revolution campaign will be working in VA Beach this Saturday to get out the youth vote for the Democratic ticket this Saturday. The Hampton Rhodes area is going to be crucial for a presidential victory in November. Join other Young Democrats from around the state to knock on doors for Dems. Please send me an email if you are interested.
House Minority Whip at Richmond Obama Headquarters
Sen. Obama was in Richmond yesterday to remind us that the election is not over and we still need to work hard to make sure we win. This Friday House Majority Whip Jim Clyburn will be at Obama HQ at 1:15p to talk about the importance of volunteering. As if you already did not know, the Obama HQ is right behind the Segal Center. Yeah, it's the one with the big letters in the window that say OBAMA. We know you have probably getting a lot of requests for your time but we are in the last 2 weeks before the election; if you have already volunteered please do so again and if you have not now is the time to help out.
