Crazy Guide to the Internet

UPDATED: Our weekend voter registration efforts are in full swing right now. Find out how you can help in Indiana.

The Indiana primary is still a month away, but the deadline to register to vote is this Monday. This weekend is our last, best chance to bring new voices and new voters into the political process in Indiana, and the last chance for Indiana residents to stake their claim in the political process.

We’ll have more information shortly on some of the events we have planned this weekend and what you can do to help in Indiana. No matter where you are, you can help out right now by making phone calls to encourage supporters to register by Monday’s deadline. 

If you live in Indiana, or if you’re calling supporters in Indiana, here’s what you’ll need to know: 

In order to register and vote in the Indiana primary on May 6th, you must:

• Be a resident of Indiana
• Be at least 18 years of age on or before the general election on November 4, 2008
• Have lived in the precinct where you vote for at least 30 days prior to the election
• Be registered to vote at your current address by next Monday, April 7th.

You can fill out and download your completed voter registration form online right now. The completed form must be postmarked or hand delivered to your county voter registration office or the Indiana Election Division by April 7th, or you can deliver it to any Obama for America field office before April 7th.

You can also apply in person at the voter registration or county clerk’s office, any DMV license branch or public assistance office.

Do you have friends or family in Indiana?

If so, you can use our online form to send emails to your friends and family and remind them to register before Monday’s deadline. Our email contact importer allows you to quickly and easily import emails (don’t worry – we won’t hold on to any of the email addresses you share).

For more information, you can visit the Indiana Secretary of State website.
