Your Vote Matters
With free online access at the UIC University Library sites, registering to vote this season is easier than ever. The Library is offering all eligible voters the opportunity to register or update their voter registration information online directly through the library's Web site and from its computer workstations. This online voter registration drive is part of the national "Register to Vote @ your library" program sponsored by the American Library Association and Working Assets.
Library users can register online at ALA's Your Vote Matters Web site, www.yourvotematters.org/ala, which was created and customized by Working Assets. Once the registration process is complete, users will need to print out, sign and mail in their registration form. The deadline to register to vote is October 5, 2004. The library recommends that voters registering on the Your Vote Matters Website do so by September 15 in order to mail in the registration form by the deadline. For answers to other questions, consult the Illinois State Board of Elections Website: http://www.elections.state.il.us/
To
encourage registration, the Library is offering free mailing of the signed
registration form to the Board of Elections; drop off the form at the Library
Administrative Offices (1st floor north, Daley;
2nd floor, LHS-Chicago; or
service desks at the other sites).
