Montpelier, VT - Secretary of State Jim Condos invites Vermonters to join him at the National Voter Registration Day Open House to be held at the Secretary of State's Office on Tuesday, September 24th.

"Vermont has an impressively high registration rate with 90.5% of all eligible Vermonters registered (compared to 75% nationally), however, it is important that we maintain our effort to educate all Vermonters on their voter rights." Stated Secretary Condos.

Secretary Condos, with the help of his Elections staff, will be registering eligible voters as well as answering questions on elections. The Secretary of State's Office will provide light refreshments and take away materials.

The Open House will take place on Tuesday, September 24th from 2pm-7pm at the Secretary of State's Office, 128 Main Street, Montpelier. All members of the public are welcome.
