RU Voting!

October 29, 2008

Dear Rutgers Students:

As this momentous presidential campaign reaches its conclusion, it is time to make your voice heard. The outcome of this year's election could not be more important, and your participation could not be more critical. I urge you to go to the polls and vote for the candidate of your choice on Tuesday, November 4.

If you are registered to vote, you may participate in this year's election. Polls in New Jersey will be open from 6:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. I encourage you to visit ruvoting.rutgers.edu for all of the information you need to know on Election Day, including where you go to vote, what you should bring, and answers to questions about the voting process.

Like other young people around the country, Rutgers students are engaged in this election. This year, the RU Voting Coalition helped more than 6,000 Rutgers students register to vote! I encourage you to take the final important step into the voting booth on Election Day.

Richard L. McCormick
President
Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey
