Reclaiming Your Vote
continued
from Metro
voter registration drives through
out the Portland Metropolitan area.
“When I was sent tojail 1 lost my
voice. Today. I’m taking a big step
in getting it back. I'm registering to
vote,"one recently released inmate
shared.
While registering to vote is im
portant, it is only the first step. The
ultimate goal is to increase this
year's turnout at the bal lot box. The
VOICE Project thus presents its
case: Reclaim your voice, make a
commitment to be counted and be
heard. Vote!
