Where Do You Vote?
Yesterday was the deadline to register to vote if you planned on doing so in the upcoming Presidential Election. That's right, believe it or not, there's an election coming up. You might have heard something about it.
If you didn't get registered in time, that's okay, you'll be part of the vast majority of American's who don't vote. If one of the many roving volunteers did convince you though, you might not be sure where your new polling place is. I just moved, and I had no idea where I needed to go to cast my ballot on Nov. 4, but I found this page on the Department of State's Website that pointed me in the right direction. The form is a little bit balky, but all you have to do is type in your address and it will tell you where to go.
Also, if you just can't get enough politics, we have some election-related events coming up on the calendar. I've listed them after the jump.
