Being that the last day to register to vote for this years general election is October 12th, last week I teamed up with Clarkstown High School North Students to hold a voter registration drive right at the High School! We registered a bunch of students that most likely would not have registered in time for this years election unless we were there to make it easy for them to register! I was really surprised at how many students actually wanted to register, many of them had said that they were wanting to register for a while but did not know were to do it or just did not have the time! Many of the students that were not 18 yet still seemed interested and I think it cemented the idea with them that as soon as they are of age they will register and not even think twice about it!
