voter registration information for all states

Please pass on these voter registration sites that cover all states. Re-post them in your own LJ and other blogs, newswletters, etc. It's amazing to think that after all these months of campaigning, the election is now only eight weeks off! Voter registration deadlines almost everywhere are only four weeks off, at the most. And remember to be registered at your current address, so you might need to re-register.

Here you go:

Project Vote Smart

Rock the Vote

NOTE: If you're living out of the country and will still be gone on Election Day, use
Federal Voting Assistance Program.

Every vote counts!

Note: I omitted the last two words of the original post, because I felt that in encouraging people to vote I wanted to be non-partisan. (Listing the source of my information is not, I hope, being partisan.) At this point, I think you all know what my choice will be, come voting day, but sharing information about the voting process isn't about my choice, but making sure that everyone gets a chance to participate and takes it. Democracies work best, IMO, when everyone who can participate, does.

My iGoogle page displays quotes from Quotes of the Day and today's are simply too good not to share:

"In America, through pressure of conformity, there is freedom of choice, but nothing to choose from."
- Peter Ustinov

"Faith is a cop-out. If the only way you can accept an assertion is by faith, then you are conceding that it can't be taken on its own merits."
- Dan Barker

"Humanity has advanced, when it has advanced, not because it has been sober, responsible, and cautious, but because it has been playful, rebellious, and immature."
- Tom Robbins
