Marines Encouraged to Vote

Week of July 21, 2008

The Presidential election will be held on Nov. 4, 2008. To vote in the election, you must be registered. The Commandant of the Marine Corps recently encouraged all Marines to vote. If you're deployed or stationed outside your state of legal residency, you must complete a federal post card application (FPCA) to register to vote or to request an absentee ballot. The most frequent barrier voters encounter when voting absentee is insufficient ballot transit time. Register now to eliminate this problem. If you need an FPCA or assistance in completing the FPCA, visit your unit voting assistance officer or visit the Marine Corps Voting website. Additional information can be obtained from the Federal Voting Assistance Program (FVAP) website.
