Voting--- It's a Right!
Registration:-In many states, you can register to vote at the age of 17.-After you turn 18, you will receive your Voter Registration Card in the mail.-Registering by mail is easy--go to Congress.org and follow the simply directions.
Voting ProceduresVoting Procedures are pretty simple! In my community, you can either go to the Town Hall and vote, or even the Courthouse. It is best to check with locals where the best place to vote is, however. Be sure you bring Identification, and always be mindful of other voters. It's nice to start casual conversation while waiting in line, however while at the voting booths it is polite to keep to yourself and stay quiet. This way, there are no problems between others, and voting can go by quicker!
