Why Should You Vote?]][c
• If you don’t vote you really have no right to
complain about government decisions you
don’t like.
• It sets a positive example to your children, your
neighbors and your friends.
• Failing to register to vote is the same as saying
“I don’t care!”
• Voting means you believe in the democratic
process, It represents your right to freedom of
speech.
Why Should You Vote?
• If you do not register to vote, you are missing
out a significant personal freedom.
• When you vote, you honor the sacrifices that
Soldiers make in fighting for our freedom.

• Does not claim the right to vote in any other
State.
• Does not cast vote more than one place.

Editor's Notes

  1. Do you vote?
  2. Remember that the next time you hear someone moaning about how bad things are in government. Ask them if they voted. Then you will know whether they are worth listening to.
  3. Remember that the next time you hear someone moaning about how bad things are in government. Ask them if they voted. Then you will know whether they are worth listening to.
  4. old (Any person who is 17 years old and will be eighteen years of age at the next general election shall be permitted to register in advance and also vote in any intervening primary or special election)
  5. For example, if you do not know how to use voting equipment, or need help casting your ballot because of a physical disability or inability to read or write. You can ask the election official to call the General Registrar’s office BEFORE you leave the polling place if you have problems regarding your eligibility to vote or the casting of your vote.
  6. Remember you can still vote even if you do not have your ID with you, but save time and aggravation, make sure you have it with you before leaving home.
  7. Thank you for coming today (or tonight) to learn more about voting. (REMEMBER: hand out the evaluation forms or use the form that people can raise their hand to answer.)
