Register to Vote by October 22

Yesterday was National Voter Registration Day! Barbara Lee had a rally to remind people of the importance of voicing our vote in our democracy. We need to do all we can to get people registered and ready to vote. Too many states are dealing with voter suppression laws. Now Californians can register to vote online (as of last week), and October 22 is the deadline for registering for the November 6, 2012 election. If you have moved, you must update your registration.

I heard that on Monday Governor Brown signed into law a bill that will allow Californians to register on election day, but not until 2015.
