TIPS ON REGISTERING TO VOTE Y’ALL.

• The deadline is October 12. It needs to most likely be IN YOUR COUNTY’S BOARD OF ELECTIONS OFFICE BY 5 PM ON THAT DAY. NOT POSTMARKED. THERE. IN THE OFFICE.
• Please print clearly and legibly. Don’t forget to indicate that you are a citizen, and your date of birth, and to sign the form.
• MAKE SURE THE MAILING ADDRESS IS CORRECT. If it’s different from your residential address, be sure to put it down.
• Depending on your state’s ID laws, you will probably have to provide some form of citizenship anyway with the last four digits of your Social or a current driver’s license number.
• The EAC (eac.gov) has a nationally-recognized voter registration form that tells you all of this! It’s a very good resource, and nonpartisan, and official.
• If you do miss the deadline, look up the deadlines for early voting! Early voting sites offer in person registration. It’s awesome.
• Don’t forget that you can vote absentee by mail, if you’re overseas or away from home at school but still wish to vote on the contests in your home precinct.
• But seriously.
• Print legibly.
• Check the citizenship box.
• Put your date of birth.
• SIGN THE DAMN FORM
• The deadline is October 12.
