Q. How can I get an absentee ballot for an upcoming election?

Like many students, you might not be able to get home on election day to cast your vote at your local polling place.  This doesn't mean that you can't vote!  Most states have procedures in place so that you can participate in an election by casting an absentee ballot.  Take a look at CanIVote.org, which includes links by state to resources for early and absentee voters.  Make your vote count!
