In 1990, Senator Howard Metzenbaum helped push a bill banning semi-automatics through the Senate by pointing out that the NRA had failed to defeat him in 1988, despite his being a fierce opponent of gun rights. New York Governor Mario Cuomo expressed the sentiment that shows why many politicians feel free to ignore the opinion of gun owners. As an American citizen you have a duty to vote, and a duty to vote against politicians who want to destroy our rights. Finding Information about Registration The starting point for every registration campaign is the county election commission or similar office. The Commission will have all the information you need about registration.
Procedures vary a lot from state to state.
Another source for registration information is the local League of Women Voters. Political parties are also an excellent place to go for registration assistance. After you've gotten yourself registered, the next step is registering as many pro-rights voters as you can. In many states, you can take voting registration sheets and sign up new voters yourself. Once the forms are filled out, you mail them to the county election commission.
