On Tuesday, Nov. 2, citizens across the United States will be casting their ballots in the presidential election.
The Student Government Association (SGA) hopes that Marist students will be voting as well, and is helping to register unregistered students.
From Sept. 20-24, members of SGA, as well as members of organizations like the Social Club and Political Science Club, will be registering voters in the Champagnat breezeway and Dyson. Residents of New York will be given the New York State registration application and out-of-state students will be able to fill out the National Voter Registration form (NVRA). Students from North Dakota and Wyoming can register online at www.RockTheVote.com, and New Hampshire residents must register in their county.
Students already registered who would like to request an absentee ballot should contact their local counties; voters can locate their county Web site online. Most absentee ballot requests must be received by Oct. 20.
