Voting Roadblocks

BY BARCODE 2x

On Tuesday, November 4, make sure you are able and ready to vote. There are several voting roadblocks and things that could prevent you, however.

• Have you blocked off enough time away from work? Don't make excuses! Plan your voting day now!
• Are you registered?
• Don't be complacent! Just because your candidate may be winning or losing, you still need to get in there and be counted. Every vote matters.

Then once you're in the booth, are you fully prepared?

• There are a number of local and state candidates on the ballot. When you get in the booth, you may be seeing their names for the first time. Get to know your local candidates!
• Read the ballot very carefully. There are details in there that matter a great deal. Get to know your propositions. Get more information at www.michigan.gov/vote. Find your polling place, see more information on what will appear on your ballot.
• Take your time! This is a big election, and you've got all day.
• Do you have voting anxiety? Does the process make you nervous? Use the volunteers and voting officials. Ask questions.
• Don't vote alone! Take a friend along! Hold their hand in line, then go out for beers afterwards! Make it an event!
