IMPORTANT: This information should not be downloaded using government equipment, read during duty time, sent to others using government equipment, or sent to anyone while in a government building because it involves election related activity. 

Today is National Voter Registration Day and while volunteers around the country will be on street corners, outside of groceries stores, at bus and subway stops and elsewhere to help people register, you can get started right now, right here with just one click.

If we’re going to beat back the attack on working families by the likes of Mitch McConnell, Scott Walker, the Koch brothers and other extremists, all of us—you and your family and friends—must be registered to vote.

The AFL-CIO has teamed up with TurboVote to make voting easy for you and for your friends and family. Not only can you register or update your registration, but TurboVote will help you with absentee ballots, vote-by-mail information, finding your polling place and even sending reminders by email and text so you won’t forget to vote.

In the past few years, 22 states have passed new laws restricting the right to vote and changing voter registration rules. So even if you’re already registered, you should double check that you and the people most important to you are prepared to vote this year. Have you moved since last Election Day? Make sure you're registered to vote at your new address. Maybe your friends have moved recently and need to update their voting information.

It’s easy. Click here to get started

Hmm?,that sounds kinda partisan and mean spirited from a union whose members derive their pay from our tax dollars.

I wonder who the "other extremists" are that the The American Federation of Government Employees is talking about?

We’re always hearing how the Democrats are light years ahead of the GOP in the “ground game”. I’m thinking this is just a sample of how they kick our butts in the ground game every election cycle.

Hope someone forwards that to Walker, and to the RNC, and maybe Breitbart.
