If you're not registered to vote, you are missing out on a great national privilege and a significant personal freedom.

Voting in a local, state, or national election is an exciting opportunity provided by democratic nations to their citizens. But some of us don't value that option when we fail to exercise our right to vote. Perhaps living in a third world nation where voting rights do not exist might change our minds.

You can use the National Mail Voter Registration Form to register to vote, update your registration information with a new name or address, or register with a political party.

Note: If you wish to vote absentee and are a uniformed service member or family member or a citizen living outside the U.S., contact the Federal Voting Assistance Program to register to vote.

Also you can register to vote, change your address, party or name on your voter record at the Shreve Memorial branch libraries this week as the Caddo Registrar's office goes on the road.
