Are You Registered to Vote? Ankle Biter by Michael C. Hild - February 18, 2016February 21, 201615 Have you Registered to Vote? If not, DO IT NOW. You can register online and it takes only 2 minutes. One of our biggest challenges in Manchester is that we have lots of renters (and we love you dearly), but very few homeowners. Renters have historically registered to vote at a much lower rate, because of the fact that renters tend to move around more than homeowners. That makes sense. However, this is problematic for Manchester. City politicians aren’t going to listen to us, unless we participate in the election process for Mayor/City Council and demand improvements in city services for Manchester. Have you ever heard the old saying that the squeaky wheel gets the grease? Well it couldn’t be more true for city services. Do you want the City of Richmond to complete any of the projects listed below? Well guess what, you need to Register to Vote, and then cast your vote for a Mayor and a City Council member who you believe is going to get it done. Let me give you some examples of projects that we could get completed if you Register to Vote. Do you want Manchester’s Sidewalks fixed? Register to Vote. Do you want a revitalized Manchester Waterfront? Register to Vote. Do you want Crime Reduced in Manchester? Register to Vote. Do you want Bicycle Racks in Manchester? Register to Vote.

Most close City elections are won and lost by double or triple digits. Renters can swing elections by registering and making known you support candidates that care about your neighborhood. Do it now! Reply
