American Citizen? You are eligible to vote in the upcoming
presidential election on November 4th - but only if you send in your
registration now and request an absentee ballot - and soon!
(September 20th is the recommended deadline for mailing from
overseas.)
There will be a voter registration information event in Chiba
combined with a chance to meet other Americans and discuss the
upcoming election.
Date: Sunday, SEPTEMBER 14, 2008
Time: 12 noon to 5 p.m. - we will be there all afternoon
Where: Makuhari - at Jay Nepal Restaurant in Baytown.

About a ten-minute walk from Kaihin Makuhari Station on the
Keiyo Line. Access by bus from Makuhari Hongo Station on the
Keisei and JR Lines.
Purpose: 1) to give information about voter registration state-by-
state to anyone who wants information. Forms for mailing will be
available.
2) to allow Americans a chance to meet other fellow
citizens and discuss the campaign and the candidates
3) to allow non-Americans a chance to come and give us
your opinions on the US election
Venue: We will have tables set up outside the restaurant for
information purposes. Those who want to hang around and talk are
welcome. Inside the restaurant Nepalese food and soft and alcoholic
drinks can be ordered. http://namche.jp/OFFICE/namche_jaynepal.html
Sponsor: Democrats Abroad Japan (DAJ)
Yes, we are supporting Barak Obama for president, but
we will give out voter information to anyone who asks and are willing
to talk to anyone who comes by.
Please spread the word and invite any and all Americans you know to
drop by. |
