Uh, registering is all well and good, but...

For those of you who are already registered to vote, you might want to take a look on the back of your voter registration card. Here in FL, at least, you have to vote every two years to maintain active voter status. A lot of people make the mistake of thinking that voting in the Congressional elections isn't that important, and A LOT of people only vote in the Presidential election. (I don't understand how people can think that voting for the Senate and House isn't important. *sob*)

That's all! Just a little PSA for folks who are registered (and have been for a while).

I'm the same way -- I'd vote anyway, but I was just looking at the back of my new card (post name change), and was like, 'Waitaminit.'

Then again: Florida.

'Nuff said.

Kinda OT, but another reason to vote in every election you can: When you write or call your representative or senator, they can look to see whether you voted in the last election. They're more likely to pay attention to you if you're a regular voter.
