So 4377 people in Muskingum County who are under 25 are registered to vote, however 7902 people total under 25 are capable of being registered to vote. This means only 55.4% of young people can potentially vote on Election Day if they wanted.
This in a state that doesn't have online voter registration. The Ohio Senate has recently passed a resolution allowed for online voter registration. I as an elected official urge the Ohio House of Representatives to adopt this resolution and allow Ohio citizens the ability to register to vote online.
As someone who has been deeply involved in voter research I ask if not to allow people to vote what about the money The Muskingum County Board of Elections spends on postage for voter register?
Let's make a fiscal and social responsible decision and pass online voter registration. If you agree all I ask is that you simply share this post.
