Today is your last chance to register to vote. This is obviously a Presidential Election year and that means the voting is more important than ever. Lucky for you the Franklin County Board of Elections is keeping their doors open until 9pm.

Ohio has had some controversy in the past few months, in way of a 1.2 million voter purge that ended up violating federal law. You may be unregistered and not even know it — that’s why BOE Director, Ed Leonard is asking you double check your voting status.

We’ve broken down some really solid and important reasons why you should register to vote before it’s too late.

  • You get to deny Hillary Clinton the Presidency.
  • You get to deny Donald Trump the Presidency.
  • You get to vote in your candidate of choice, Hillary Clinton.
  • You get to vote in your candidate of choice, Donald Trump.
  • You get to gleefully throw your vote at a third party candidate because you believe in their policies.
  • You get to wastefully squander your vote on a third party candidate to spite the political process.
  • You get to fully demonstrate the power of democracy by utilizing your right to vote and fulfilling your civic duty.
  • You get to fully demonstrate the inadequacy of the electoral college by voting for someone and not feeling it mattered much at all because you live in a 95% red/blue state.
  • It’s super important and by not voting you give away the moral high ground to complain about who gets elected.
