Take Time
The Federal Voting Assist-
ance Program Office has re-
ceived several telephone calls
from State and local voting of-
ficials stating that many
FPCAs are not signed or com-
pleted properly.
All FPCAs must be signed
or the local officials will not
process the request.
State and local offices have
asked that all individuals be
reminded to fill out the FPCA
properly and legibly so that
the applications can be proc-
essed.
If you have questions on
any aspect of registration and
voting procedures, check first
with the installation voting
counselor.
