Oct. 6 voter registration deadline approaches: Registration forms available on line

LANSING -- Michigan residents who have not yet registered to vote can fill out an online form and mail it in to meet the registration deadline of Oct. 6, 2008, for the November 4 presidential election.

Michigan Governor Jennifer Granholm offers on her Web site a new online feature that will print off a pre-filled voter registration form to mail in. You can fill out and print a voter registration form at http://www.jennifergranholm.com/register.

To register, you must be at least 18-years-old on or before Election Day and be a U.S. citizen. You must be a resident of Michigan and the city or township in which you wish to register. You can register in person at any Secretary of State or Department of Human Services office, or by mail.

You can find out if you're registered and where you should vote by signing in at https://services2.sos.state.mi.us/mivote/.
