Video Transcript

"Hello, my name is Matthew Burbank and I am Associate Professor at the University of Utah, and I'd like to talk to you a bit about how to get registered to vote in the state of Texas. Voting, registering to vote in the state of Texas is is very easy to do. What you first need to do is meet the criteria for being eligible to vote in the state of Texas, and that means you need to be a U. S. citizen, you need to be at least eighteen years of age, and you need to be a resident of the state of Texas. If you meet those criteria, you can register to vote in the state of Texas and you can do so fairly easily either by going to the state of Texas website and looking for the voter registration information there, or by going in person to a number of various government agencies, such as driver's license agencies, or county clerk's offices and filling out the registration information and either submitting that in person or mailing it in. Either way, if you are able to fill out that information, get yourself registered, you will then be eligible to vote in the state of Texas."
