How to Register to Vote in Dormont and Brookline

If you haven’t yet registered to vote, get it off your to-do list now.

Today is National Voter Registration Day, and thousands of local, state and national organizations have mobilized to make sure millions of people don’t miss the chance to cast their vote in this year’s elections.

Six million people didn’t vote in the 2008 elections because they either did not know how to register or because they missed the voter registration deadline.

The voter registration deadline for Pennsylvania is Oct. 9.

Here’s some info to help get you registered in time for the Nov. 6 elections:

• Information about registering to vote can be found at votepa.com.
• Information about what documents you need to vote, or to apply for a voter identification card is available at the Committee of Seventy website.
• Are you registered? Check your voter registration status at the Pennsylvania Department of State website.
