CUNY makes voter registration easy in bid to get students signed up

Finals should be this easy.

Students at the 24 colleges of the City University can now register to vote in the time it takes to answer two questions.

Officials eager to sign up students before the Oct. 14 deadline for this year’s federal elections have filled out virtually the entire registration form in advance.

Using information previously supplied by the students, officials have supplied names, addresses and birth dates in Board of Elections forms.

Students only have to answer two questions: have they voted before and which party, if any, they want to join.

Then it’s simply a matter of printing out the pre-stamped form, signing it and mailing it to the Board of Elections.

Last year, CUNY helped register 20,513 students.

The municipal college system enrolls about 275,000 students, including more than 37,000 first-time eligible voters who just turned 18.

Of CUNY students registered to vote, more than two-thirds cast their ballots in the 2012 presidential election.
