Show, by your actions, that you choose peace over war, freedom over oppression, voice over silence, service over self-interest, respect over advantage, cooperation over competition, action over passivity, diversity over uniformity, and justice over all.

Hi Professor Leinbaugh,

This is Anu Dathan with the New Voters Project - thanks again for forwarding the message about voter registration to your students!

Since Ohio's voter registration deadline is coming up on October 9 (meaning all voter registration forms must be received by then), I was hoping you could send a reminder email like the one below to your students.

We've found that voter registration rates skyrocket in the days leading up to the deadline. Twice as many students respond to email reminders and on the ground efforts, so it would be great if you could send out a reminder like the sample below.

Thanks for all you are doing!

Best,
Anu

Hi,

The deadline to register to vote in Ohio is Oct 9 - that means your voter registration needs to be received by then!

If you need to register for the first time or have moved since you last registered, click here to register to vote<http://www.studentvote.org> (www.StudentVote.org<http://www.StudentVote.org>). It's easy!

Already registered? Great. Please help make sure all of your friends are by sharing StudentVote.org on Facebook<http://www.facebook.com/share.php?u=http%3A%2F%2Fstudentvote.org>.

 By registering and voting in big numbers, we can raise the voice of young people, together.

Thanks,
Anu Dathan

P.S. Please forward this email to your friends and family who might need to register.
