Voter registration deadlines approaching
By The Associated Press
Voters wanting to cast their ballots in the upcoming Nov. 4 election have just a few days to make one deadline.
Nebraskans who planned on mailing in their registrations must have their forms postmarked by Friday.
Voters still have until Oct. 24 to fill out a registration form in person at county election offices.
Nebraska Secretary of State John Gale says people should update their voter registration if they have moved.
Voters with questions should contact their county election official or Gale’s office.

There is NO excuse for not voting. None! A lot of people try to justify their laziness or apathy, but it's pretty clear to the rest of us, anyway. Who do you think you're fooling? "

For those of you who say, 'One vote doesn't make a difference' or 'There's no one worth voting for' think again. I'm also guessing those of you who rarely or never vote would be the first ones in line to complain if your right to vote were ever taken away. "

I plan on voting for Obama, even though my vote really won't count in this state. Nebraska has not voted democratic since 1964, and before that is was in the 30's for FDR. Nebraska is one of the reddest of the red states. I think that the electoral college makes people believe that their vote won't count if they don't support who the majority of the state supports, and in reality it doesn't (except if you live in a battleground state). However, that hasn't stopped me from supporting Obama, and trying to get other people to do so. So, if you support Obama, please DO vote and use your political voice, even though it won't really count here in NE. You'll at least get one of those "I Voted" stickers! And maybe someday we can reform our election process. "
