if you've voted local you good. but there seems to be allot of people who voted in 2008 and haven't since. those people gotta register again

I've been registered to vote for a little under 2 years, and I've never been called for Jury Duty

I think you have to make a certain amount of money, to be called for JD.

1. you should vote, even if not for president, the other important stuff on the ballot that affects YOU directly and locally.

2. I've only been asked to do jury duty once, but I was in college in a different city so I was ok.

3. There was a story by a poster on SOHH about how he had jury duty and basically saved a young brother from a guilty sentence some other jurors were trying to give him.

4. Do I need to re-register?
You will need to re-register to vote if your address, name, and/or party affiliation has changed since your last registration.

I was talking to people in Florida. hmmmm.....It may be different in certain states. if that's the case, that makes it better. People need to check their status

What TS is tryin to saw is that Rethugs are changing laws in every state so make sure they didn't kick ur ass off the ballot if u live in a battleground state

 

[Takerstani]

@ not voting but every 4 years. Local/state matters impact us more day to day than national affairs.

In FL they sent spanish speaking people letters (in english) telling them they were removed and they needed to re-register
