Don’t forget to vote, UW dean says

In case you might have been under a rock or on the moon the past year, Tuesday is Election Day, and the dean of students at UW-Madison is urging all students to get out and vote. “I urge you to become an active participant in the democratic process by voting for the candidates of your choice in federal, state and local races,” said Lori Berquam in a news release from the UW-Madison news service. Something new for voters this year, thanks to 21st century communication: you can prove your residency by showing a copy of the Voter Enrollment Verification Form on your smartphone, when you go to the polls to register if not already registered.
