Be a Permanent Absentee Voter

As the Spring 2012 semester comes to a close, you may have many urgent loose ends to tie up before you enjoy your summer. This year, there are many important elections whose outcomes can affect faculty and the rest of our state. Please make registering to vote in this year’s Primary and General Elections a priority. If you have already registered, consider signing up as a permanent absentee voter. It’s a convenient way to vote by mail, especially for faculty who may be too busy to get to the polls.
