According to 18in08.com, 29 million people, aged 18-24, will be eligible to vote in the upcoming Presidential Election. As young voters, we have the potential to determine the outcome of next year’s Presidential Election, so it is critical that as St. John’s students we stay informed and become engaged in the political process and that begins with Registering and Voting!

A major initiative of “Participate in ’08” is to encourage everyone to register to vote.  Non-partisan voter registration drives will be scheduled on campus and voter registration information will be made widely available to the entire campus community to encourage increased participation in the political process.

The St. John’s University College Democrats and St. John’s University College Republicans will sponsor and post interesting events as well as academic lectures, guest speakers and University-sponsored programs on the “Participate in ‘08” web page to give young voters everywhere a sounding board in hopes that more and more old and new voters will “Participate in ’08” during the general election process.
