Registering to vote is easy and quick. In order to
register to vote, you'll need three things:
1. A voter registration form. Download one here.
2. A sheet of 8-1/2 x 14 inch (legal size) paper on which
to print your voter registration form. Almost all printers
will print on this size paper. In your "print setup" menu,
be sure to adjust for this size paper.

you'll mail your registration form to. You can get that
here.
