Each election, at least one hundred million Americans
don't vote. With the help of the tools on this GOTV website, you have a
golden opportunity to help bring more voters to the polls.
This voter education campaign has two goals: To
encourage your employees to register to vote, and encourage them-- and
your customers-- to vote on Election Day. With a few clicks on this web
site you will have access to following information:
* Charts showing registration requirements and deadlines
for every state, including absentee ballot information and primary
election dates; and
* Suggestions for publicizing your voter education program and for
customizing your effort to meet your company's particular budget and
needs; and
* The 'dos and don'ts' of election law.
By visiting the GOTV
website you have made the first essential step in preparing your
voter education campaign. Now, you have to make the next step to ensure
that your employees are taking part in the democratic process and making
certain that the voice of Aluminum Manufacturers is being represented in
our nation's legislature. After all, the decisions of our lawmakers
affect the quality of life of our companies, our employees and, most
importantly, our families.
Participation in this voter registration campaign need
not be expensive or time-consuming. You'll find that just a little
effort can lead to overwhelming participation. Your involvement can be
as simple as displaying one of our Get
Out the Vote posters, or it can be as elaborate as setting up your
own on-site voter registration drive. You decide.
We urge you to encourage your employees to exercise
their right to vote. Help them see that, contrary to popular belief the
voting process is not complicated or inconvenient. Help your employees
realize that the right to vote is an opportunity not to be taken for
granted. Lead your employees, suppliers and customers to the voting
booths on Election Day.
