George Mason University College Democrats

Attention students: If you are attending George Mason University, you can register to vote here in Fairfax, Virginia.  Please click on “Voter Information” on the left side of this page.

Voter registration volunteers will be around campus for the first part of the Fall semester.  The deadline to register to vote is October 12. If you would like to help register voters, there are thousands of students who are either not registered or have not updated their voter information to their current address.  Email georgemasondems@gmail.com to schedule a time to register voters.  We have all the resources you need, and we highly recommend a five minute training before conducting the voter registration.

The George Mason Democrats believe strongly in voting rights for all citizens, and we register voters regardless of party affiliation.

September 1st:  Welcome Week Connection Carnival.  The College Democrats will join hundreds of other student organizations with a table on the North Plaza where we will register voters, recruit new members and distribute literature about our Democratic candidates.  Visit http://welcomeweek.gmu.edu/fairfax-events.php to find out about more Welcome Week events.

We look forward to seeing you on campus!
