My daughter is a freshman in Ames, IA (Story County). I have researched the Iowa voter website and she is eligible to register to vote in Iowa (which needs her vote more than her home state of MN). She cannot register to vote online because she does not have an Iowa DL, but she can fill out a voter registration form and take it to the county auditor (and I think early vote at the same time). Can any Iowa person help me with several questions. First, does anyone know if there is a voter registration drive on the ISU campus? Second, if not, do you know of where I can find if there are there any volunteers that can take her to the county office to register (she does not have a car)? Third, do you know the deadline to register? While I know this should be her responsibility, she is busy with school and her other activities and I this is too important to hope that she “gets around to it. Finally, can someone from Story County, if possible, let me know which judges/local people she should be voting for? Thank you for all your help.

I sent my 11 year old off to play hockey tonight with my hubby and sat down to take my mind off my frustration with his youth baseball program, when I saw this:

The National Hockey League and the NHL players assocation has announced a partnership with the You Can Play Project.
You Can Play, launched in Boston by Patrick Burke, is an advocacy group that fights homophobia in sports...

Speaking on the partnership Burke stated, "The NHL sets the standard for professional sports when it comes to LGBT outreach and we are incredibly grateful for their help and support. We will work with the League and the NHLPA officials, teams and players to ensure that we create a more inclusive hockey community at all levels.
