Voter registration is easy so act now if you need help. You can visit or mail your application request to the Montgomery County Courthouse at 100 E. Main St., Crawfordsville, IN 47933 or contact them by calling 765-364-6437.

You can obtain a government issued photo identification card (Indiana ID card for $9 or Indiana Driver License for $17.50) at the Bureau of Motor Vehicles, 1629 Eastway Drive, Crawfordsville, IN 47933. Further information can be found online at https://www.in.gov/bmv.

With all the rhetoric about “voter suppression” it is good to know you have more than one year to complete the process if necessary.

As Edmund Burke once said, “The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men should do nothing.”

If you are currently registered to vote, please do so in the upcoming elections and help shape our country for the future.
