HOW TO VOTE:
* You can register to VOTE via MOTOR VOTER (DMV):http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Voter_Registration_Act_of_1993
** You can register to vote via DSS or if you're on FOOD STAMPS or/and DSS via the application, voter registration is on the back of the DSS/FOOD STAMP application.
*** ROCK THE VOTE: http://www.rockthevote.org/
**** If you're a college student AWAY at college (on campus, away from primary residence), you'll have to vote absentee ballot. Kinda sucks, I know, or register to vote if you live off campus in the town you live in when you're in college.
***** If you're a musician on tour during the election date, you vote absentee ballot.
******* If you live in Peurto Rico, technically Peurto Rico is a common wealth of the USA, however, U.S. voting rights for Puerto Ricans have been complicated:

No pressure, here, voter apathy, is what it is, you don't have to vote, but if you don't vote, don't bitch. Don't take that freedom to VOTE for granted, look what happened in IRAN in 2009.

A change of enrollment received no later than 25 days before the general election shall be deposited in a sealed enrollment box and opened the first Tuesday following that general election and entered in the voter's registration record.

Victims of Domestic Violence
N.Y. Election Law (5-508) allows victims of domestic violence who obtain a court order from NY Supreme Court in the county where they are registered to have their voter registration record kept separate and apart from other registration records and not be made available for inspection or copying by the public or any other person, except election officials acting within the course and scope of their official duties. Under a separate section of the law (11-306), you can also be excused from going to your polling place to vote and get a special ballot. For further information, you should contact your local board of elections for their confidential registration and special ballot procedures.
