GET OUT THE VOTE COMMENTARY
According to the Rio
Rancho Journal, Sandoval County had the lowest primary election turnout in over
30 years with about 10% of eligible voters casting ballots. How can we take back
this country if more of us dont participate in the democratic process? The
General Election is on Tuesday, November 7. Thats right around the corner and
it is up to us to support our Democratic candidates.
What can you do? If
you arent registered, please do so before Tuesday, October 10th so you can vote in the General Election. Keep in mind that
if you moved or had a name change youll need to re-register. If its easier to
vote by mail, simply request an application by calling the Sandoval County
Clerks office at 867-7577 or 867-7574. You can also vote early from Tuesday, October 10th until Saturday, November
4th. Call the clerks office for early voting
locations.
Check with your
neighbors, relatives and friends and encourage them (if they are not registered)
to get registered and most of all to get out and vote!
