Election Anxiety/Volunteer Opportunity

Nervous about the election…..do something!!!!  Our main September Project is to register new voters and find folks who may need to update voter information.  We are having great success contacting people at local grocery stores.  Call today and sign-up for a two hour shift….evenings/weekends.  It is fun!  It is successful! Bring a friend to work with you or we will arrange a partner for the shift.

It’s working!

From the Seattle PI:

King County has signed up more than 16,000 new voters so far this month, a number that includes voters previously registered in other counties in the state. The rate of new registrations likely will increase closer to the October deadlines for signing up for the November election, officials said.

In 2004, more than 75,000 voters were added to the King County rolls between the registration deadline for the Sept. 14 primary that year and the general election cut-off date.

Last month, more than 19,000 new voters were enrolled, marking the seventh consecutive month with more than 10,000 new registrants.
