Students can choose to vote in their school state or their home state.
The numbers are big enough to matter. A lot.
For example, more than 62,000 students from Ohio are attending school in other states. Iowa has 50,000 students from out-of-state
www.CountMore.org is a new site that makes it easy to compare any two states and see how critical the presidential race is in each.
After comparing states they can get registered and sign up to vote absentee.
Many students don't realize that they have a choice, and many others aren't registered at all. Registration deadlines are coming fast (many are on Oct 6th).
This is a high leverage and very easy way to get more votes where they count most. Please help more students become aware of their options by sending countmore to all your college age friends.
