Are you 18 now, or will be on or by November 4 2008? Then register to vote! The Des Plaines Library is registering voters in the main lobby. Hurry in- tomorrow (October 7) is the last day to register before November’s elections!
You need to be a US citizen on the day of registration and to register you need two pieces of identification. Acceptable identification are:
- Illinois Drivers license
- Illinois State ID
- social security card
- valid passport
- employee or student ID
- credit card
- birth certificate
- mail postmarked to you
None of these need to be a picture ID.
If you can’t register today or tomorrow, visit the Cook County Election Department website for information about grace-period registration and voting.
This is shaping up to be one of the country’s most exciting elections! The right to vote is something everyone should exercise. Register today!
