If you are registered to post on DU, but not registered to vote, LEAVE!
Edited on Fri Oct-20-06 01:03 PM by Beelzebud
If you are registered to post here on DU, but aren't registered to vote, LEAVE YOUR HOUSE TODAY AND GO GET REGISTERED.

Public Service Announcment brought to you by: Me

(I know most of you are registered to vote, but I also know there are those who aren't)

If you aren't registered to vote, but you visit this site everday, you don't deserve this site!

**Edited to state the obvious**
If you aren't able to legally register, this message doesn't apply to you.

**Edited again**
Sorry for trying to urge people to register. Next time I'll have a lawyer draft up a post, that way every legal aspect will be fully covered. Then I'll have a disclaimer saying you're not legally bound to anything in the post.

I also apologize to anyone I might have offended by urging people who aren't registered, but need to be, to go out today and register. What was I thinking?

1. What about those over the ponds and under 18.
But I do see your point.

2. I trust my fellow liberals and Democrats to see the obvious. :)
If you don't live in America, and aren't 18, of course there is nothing to be done.

The people that need to be registered, but aren't, know who they are.

5. Ok, nevermind, sorry.

I forgot that you can't make a post here without people dissecting every little flaw with it.

Forgive me. I won't bother next time.

8. I'm over the pond - and I'm registered to vote.
Just in British elections rather than American ones. ;)

3. It's too late in most places...
for this election, at least. They should still go get registered anyway, though.

7. What if you are a Republican troll?
Shouldn't we encourage them not to register? :shrug:

10. KICK!
Fuck all the bullshit... the point is a good one!

If it's not too late, and you haven't, do it!

And even if you have, it's not a bad idea to take a moment to call and check and make sure you still are... what with all the 'accidental' erroneous purges recently. Don't want any nasty surprises at the polls.

12. But, but, but...
...what if you're in a persistent vegetative state or are chained to a wall or are a fictional character or or or...

Sorry. Just adding to the air of mayhem in this thread.

Register, you clowns! (clowns can vote, right?)

13. People of voting age, who joined Democratic Underground...
Are almost certainly registered to vote IMO. You are trying to preach to the choir.
