Getting Out and Voting

It seems that MySpace will now be encouraging people to register to vote and Walmart are going to be doing something like this too by running an initiative to register all their staff to vote. They have 1.3 million employees. Simon McGarr wrote a guide on how to register to vote which deserves attention.

In one of the afternoon sessions at the Blogging the Election conference, perhaps if there’s interest, we’ll discuss how a non-partisan campaign that involves everyone can encourage people to register to vote. Please consider going to this conference. Register here for it. There’s a €15 entrance fee on the door but lunch is free!

If you want to sponsor the event then give me a shout. We need about another 2k in sponsorship by the looks of it!
