The right to vote is important to the continued success of our

democratic processes at all levels of government. It is through

the choices made by individual voters that elected officials are

chosen and ballot propositions are decided. Important matters on

the November 1998 ballot include the election of the Governor,

U.S. Senators and Congressional Representatives, State Senate and

Assembly members, and numerous other Federal, State, and local

elected officials. Also, there will be 12 state-wide ballot

propositions, including Proposition 1A, a $9.2 billion bond issue

for capital projects for K-12 schools, community colleges,

California State University and the University of California.

 

The most important step in the electoral process is registering

to vote. The deadline for the November 3, 1998, General Election

is October 5, 1998. If you have moved since last voting, have

changed your name, or wish to change your party affiliation, you

must re-register in order to be eligible to vote. If you have not

registered before and are a resident of California and will be

18 years of age by the election, you must register in order to vote.

 

Voter registration forms are available at many locations in the

community such as libraries and post offices. Registration

forms are available on the UCSD campus at:
