New Era Colorado holds voter registration drive at CU-Boulder

There was at least this one registration drive yesterday, the last day to affiliate before the March 16 caucus. This is from the Boulder Daily Camera, have you seen others? If so email me link at John@JohnWren.com.

New Era Colorado, a youthful civic group, on Tuesday registered young voters on the University of Colorado. 

Voters needed to be affiliated with a political party by the end of the Tuesday to be able to participate in the 2010 March caucus.

Carrie Jackson, New Era Colorados Program Director, helped register people on CU's Boulder campus Tuesday. About 30 people registered to vote, affiliated with political parties or updated their addresses, she said.

New Era-ites hula-hooped and roller-skated around outside the University Memorial Center with their clipboards as part of the event.

During the 2008 election cycle, New Era Colorado registered over 11,000 new voters. Of those new voters, more than 10,000 were under the age of 30.
