You Can Still Register To Vote...

I know the New York cutoff for voter registration was supposed to be Monday, but you can still register to vote...in the subway. No, I'm not kidding. There are people at 168th street who are yelling and screaming, "IT WILL ONLY TAKE TWO MINUTES OF YOUR LIFE TO CHANGE THE FUTURE AND TO MAKE YOUR VOICE HEARD!"

"BE THE CHANGE!!!!"

"IF YOU'RE NOT REGISTERED, YOU DON'T MATTER!"

Ok, so they didn't say that last one, but the yelling was not so friendly. It was, however, effective. I saw several people stopping and filling out papers quickly. I didn't time it, but it looked like it could have been 2 minutes. Maybe 2 1/2. Somewhere around there.

So if you aren't registered to vote, check out a subway station near you.
