There is an ongoing Voter Registration project underway in the state of Virginia.
Today, 90for90.org is pleased and honored to announce that the Bernie Sanders campaign has joined the growing list of supporters for this wonderful project. You can see just how quickly support is growing by checking the "Supporters of 90 for 90" link at this 90for90.org link.
90for90.org is in honor of Dr. William Ferguson Reid Sr's 90th birthday and his long history of expanding voters rights.

What is 90for90 all about?
(from the DKos Asheville diary by randallt on April 11, 2015)
90 for 90
Essential to voting is voter registration of course and that is the focus behind the 90 for 90 model of local and effective political action and engagement with potential voters. The name is based on its Virginia roots but the model can apply anywhere.
In honor of Dr. William F. "Fergie" Reid's 90th birthday and his long history of expanding voters' rights, we commit to registering new voters for this years election.
If all volunteers and candidates worked together to register 90 new voters in each of the Commonwealth's precincts, our efforts would result in a quarter million new voters for the Old Dominion.
