The deadline for voter registration in the 2008 Presidential Election is Monday, Jan. 7.

Chief Registrar Warren Miller said voter registration applications can be filled out through the registrar’s office, at either of the county’s libraries or City Hall offices, or at the Probate Court or Tax Commissioner’s offices. A voting application can also be gotten online at http://sos.georgia.gov/elections/voter_registration/voter_reg_app.htm.

“As long as it’s done by Monday, they’ll be eligible,” Miller said.

Any U.S. citizen who will be at least 18 years of age by the date of the election is eligible to vote. You must be a legal resident of Georgia and Bryan County and have a valid form of identification at the time of the election. This includes a Georgia driver’s license, even if expired; a valid ID card issued by the state or federal government; a free voter ID card issued by the state or Bryan County, a passport; a government photo ID; or a valid military ID card.

The voting will take place on Tuesday, Feb. 5 for the presidential primary preference election.

Democratic candidates include Joe Biden, Hillary Clinton, Chris Dodd, John Edwards, Mike Gravel, Dennis Kucinich, Barack Obama and Bill Richardson. Republican candidates include Rudy Giuliani, Mike Huckabee, Duncan Hunter, John McCain, Ron Paul, Mitt Romney, Tom Tancredo and Fred Thompson.
