Not Registered to Vote? Time to Get in The Game

An estimated 6 million Americans failed to vote in 2008 because they did not know how to register or they missed their state's deadline to register.

In response to this national embarrassment came the creation of National Voter Registration Day, which this year takes place Tuesday. It is a day devoted to organizing and mobilizing people to register to vote. Last year, more than 300,000 people became new registered voters on National Voter Registration Day.
