Let’s be honest: the week is off to a rough start. Bank failures. Stock market losses. All those annoying lipstick jokes. When will it ever end?

Something has to change. But where should you start?

I suggest you start with the basics. Step one: register to vote.

Been putting it off because you’re too tired each night to do anything other than eat dinner, blog and watch “The Daily Show”? I can help with that, too.  With Progressive Future’s spiffy new online voter registration tool, you won’t even need to leave the sofa.

Our awesome new online registration system makes the whole process quick, simple and secure. And the voter registration deadline is just around the corner – so don't delay.

Think you can do more? Then put down those Pringles and give it a try!

Step Two: Get your friends and family to register. Sure, you think all of them have this under control; but are you sure? That uncle who drives around with expired tags? Your neighbor who still has the weed whacker that you loaned to him last March? Are you sure that they all remembered to register?

Just to be on the safe side, why not use this Progressive Future action page to send those folks a short email letting them know about our quick, easy online registration tool?

You can send it along with a reminder about that weed whacker.
