Learn About Election Day Registration Friday in ABQ

From Common Cause NM:
At Common Cause, increasing voter turnout and making it easier for citizens to express their views are high priorities. That's why we're sponsoring an educational presentation about Election Day Registration (sometimes referred to as "same day voter registration") this Friday, August 11, in Albuquerque. The presentation is open to the public, so please join me!

Lary Ghan, the County Commissioner from Bannock County, Idaho will explain Election Day Registration (EDR) to the Courts, Corrections and Justice Committee. Idaho is one of six states that use Election Day Registration systems. Mr. Ghan served for over 20 years as a county clerk in Idaho and he has participated in the transition to EDR in that state.  His presentation and dialogue with committee members will provide an excellent opportunity to learn more about EDR.

Here are the details for the event:

Date/Time: Friday, August 11, beginning at 9:00 AM

Location: The University of New Mexico Student Union Building in Ballroom C. Please see this link for a map of the University of New Mexico. The Student Union Building is number "60" on the map, and the parking structure is number "198".

Thank you, and I look forward to seeing you at the EDR presentation on the morning of August 11!

Sincerely,
Matt Brix, Executive Director
