>As you might know, the Republican Champaign County Clerk, Mark Sheldon and
>his Republican predecessor have a history of making it difficult for
>students to vote because students tend to vote Democrat. This is
>especially pronounced on election day. In the past there have been fewer
>voting booths and workers in student precincts, leading to long lines that
>snaked out the door in bad weather and long waits that discouraged
>students from voting. Also, election judges are more likely to ask for
>identification in student precincts and to send voters away for not having
>identification and proof of address.

>If you would like to help voters exercise their right to vote, you can be
>an election judge for the Democratic party. This involves working at the
>polls and making sure there aren't any improprieties. And if a Republican
>election judge challenges students' registration, a Democrat election
>judge and poll watcher can overrule them. And... election judges get paid.
>$65 if you don't go through training and $90 if you do. The training is
>Saturday, November 4 at 11:00am at Brookens (I think it doesn't take too
>long.)

>If you are interested, you can e-mail Lou Segreti at lousegreti at aol.com or
>call him at 344-6246.

>And, if you want to help defeat local Republicans, you can help get out
>the vote in the next week leading up to the election.
>Regardless of who you support for President, there are crucial differences
>between local candidates and great chances to take back some Republican
>controlled offices. Contact Lou Segreti for this too. He coordinates the
>Chubb Conner campaign. If you would like to help with Tod Satterthwaite's
>campaign, I don't have the contact info with me but I'm sure Lou would
>point you in the right direction.
