Metro High School students learn about voter registration
On Thursday, October 18th,
I was invited to give a presentation (see www.linncounty.org/files/download.asp?type=Adobe&mode=view&I=3894)
to students at Metro
High School. This was my first invitation to a classroom
since being elected. I wasn’t certain I
could talk for 40 minutes about voter registration, but throw in a few
questions and walk through filling out a voter registration application and
before you know it, you’re out of time.
Last week I attended an open
house at Metro and discovered the students have been busy researching the 2008 presidential
candidates. They prepared a caucus guide
(see www.linncounty.org/files/download.asp?type=Adobe&mode=view&I=3895 )
that my office is making available to the public. I think the public will find this guide
useful. Please let me know what you
think. –Joel @ 5:40pm
