VOTER REGISTRATION & FREE CIVIC SEMINAR SERIES

51ºÚÁÏÍø is proud once again to celebrate National Voter Registration Day on September 20th by hosting a voter registration campaign Monday, September 19th through Thursday, September 22nd. For the past several years, 51ºÚÁÏÍø CC and the Student Government Association (SGA), the League of Women Voters of 51ºÚÁÏÍø County, the NAACP 51ºÚÁÏÍø County Branch, and the Unitarian Coastal Fellowship in Morehead City have formed a nonpartisan partnership to register voters and provide educational materials on the college campus during the month of September.

Voter registration is open to all 51ºÚÁÏÍø CC students, U.S. Citizens and residents of North Carolina. Those interested may visit campus September 19-22 according to the schedule below to register.

Early voting information including dates and times for upcoming municipal elections will be available. “The College and Student Government Association are pleased to host the Voter Registration drive to promote civic engagement among students and in the community,” says Dr. Tracy Mancini, President of 51ºÚÁÏÍø. “Every eligible American voter should exercise their right to be heard at the ballot box, and getting registered on National Voter Registration Day is a great place to start”.

In addition to the Voter Registration Campaign, the League of Women Voters of 51ºÚÁÏÍø County also invites the community to a free civic seminar series to learn about our local and county governments, and the election process.
