Voter Registration

Voter Registration

I voted stickersHello Franklin Cummings Tech students!

Did you know that young voters account for HALF of the entire voting population, making them a powerful political force. Yet, older voters are more likely to vote. If you ever feel that elected officials don’t “portray or represent,” you have the power to change that!

Be an educated and informed voter. We’ve heard the phrase, “my vote doesn’t matter,” but that is false! YOUR VOTE MATTERS!

Your vote can change America.

How do you register to vote? It’s easy:

Massachusetts residents click here:  Vote.gov
New Hampshire residents click here: https://sos.nh.gov/elections/voters/register-to-vote/
Rhode Island residents click here:  https://vote.gov/register/ri/
Maine voters residents here: https://www.maine.gov/sos/cec/elec/voter-info/votreg.html

If you are not yet 18, or are not a U.S. citizen, you can still participate in the election process:

  • Be informed! Read up on political issues (both local and national) and figure out where you stand.
  • Get out and talk to people. Even if you cannot vote, you can still voice opinions on social media, in your school or local newspaper, or other public forums. You never know who might be listening.
  • Volunteer. If you support a particular candidate, you can work on their campaign by participating in phone banks, doing door-to-door outreach, writing postcards, or volunteering at campaign headquarters. Your work can help get candidates elected, even if you are not able to vote yourself.

If you have any questions about how to register to vote, or to find out your voter registration status, please email your advisor and we can help you out!

Voting is one of the most powerful rights you have as a citizen, and one of the most important obligations you have as well. Your voice is powerful, your voice is needed, and your vote matters.
