Dear Friends,
How did voter registration go today? Where did you go? How many voters did you register?
I volunteered for voter registration on the Seattle Eastside. I would like to know who needs help in other parts pf the Seattle area and where volunteer time could produce results on voter registration. Is there any neighborhood with a lof of Mexican Americans who recently became citizens, or is there any minority neighborhood where not enough people are registered? Are there any transit points that need to be covered?
The State of WA registeres people at the Motor Vehicle Bureau when they get their drivers' licenses, so trying to do voter registration in the suburbs was not very productive. (I do not know this area very well, as I came here for consulting.)
A few year ago I had a lot of success registering voters in African American low income areas in the East Coast.
Please help make this voter registration drive work.
