TODAY IS THE LAST DAY TO REGISTER TO VOTE IN NY

NEW YORKERS!

One of my top causes is getting my friends to vote in the district where they live, especially in New York. Local elected officials are the ones that affect your day to day life and the ones who will actually listen when you call, write, email. None of this "I'm still registered in my home state even though I live and pay taxes in New York." It's just foolish.

The primaries are MORE important than the November elections for locals because in NYC, the democrat almost always wins. SO, the important thing is getting the RIGHT Democrat on the ballot. The only time to do this is in the Primary Election on 9/15, and you must be registered with the Democratic party to cast this vote. While I respect the philosophy of registering Independent, guess what? It's a waste of your vote in New York, it just is. So make your vote count and register Dem today and SHOW UP at the polls on 9/15. I'll post my endorsements in a week or two.

From Freelancers Union:

Are you registered to vote in the primary election on September 15? Odds are you aren’t.

Today’s the last day to register to vote (PDF).

Yes, voting’s the “civic-minded” thing to do, but it’s also in your best interest. The right candidate can make a difference in your life and on your bottom line. Plus, NYC’s primary elections typically have low turn-out, which means that together, as a group, we can really make a splash.

Right this very second, print out this registration form (PDF) and stick it in the mail. No stamp necessary. Today is the postmark deadline.
