Asian American Get Out the Vote Party

This coming Wed., Oct. 8, WAA is hosting Asian American Get Out the Vote Party from 12:30 PM to 1:30 PM at Rm. 415 in the student center, co-sponsoring with ASU (Asian Student Union), GA (GenerAsians), and CPLA (Committee for Political and Legislative Action) to promote more voting turnout within Wellesley's Asian American community in order to address the concern that Asian Americans have the least voting turnout amongst all ethnic minorities. In the 2004 elections, 44% of the Asian American population voted, as opposed to the nearly 64% of Americans who voted. 37.7% of Asian Americans who did not vote cited their reasons as "not interested or involved in politics." Don't know who to vote for because you don't know each candidate's stance on issues that concern you? We'll provide them. Don't know where to get the forms? We'll have them with us. Don't know what the deadlines are? We'll tell you. Confused by the voting rules and restrictions? Just ask us. Don't wanna pay for mailing? Guess what? We're paying them for you. Why? So you can join us in our fight to help shape our country by registering to vote. YOUR VOTE MATTERS.
