Video Transcript

"Hello. I'm Matthew Burbank and I am Associate Professor at the University of Utah, and I'd like to talk to you a little bit about how to get registered to vote in the state of Georgia. Registering to vote in the state of Georgia is quite easy. In fact, what you would need to do is first, meet the criteria for being eligible to vote. That is you need to be a U. S. citizen, you need to be a resident of the state of Georgia, and you need to be at least eighteen years old. Also, you can't have been convicted of a felony, or currently serving parole. Otherwise, if you meet those criteria, you can register to vote in the state of Georgia, and the way that you would do that is either by going to state of Georgia's website and looking for the Secretary of States election page and getting thee on-line form, or you can also get this form. You can request a copy of the form by telephone, or by e-mail, or by going in person to a registration office, which could be ah in any county that you are residing in the state of Georgia."
