#美国大选#-谁能在大选中投票和鼓励选民登记的“请踊跃投票”活动

美国公民只要年满18岁及以上均可登记投票。在美国，选举是两段式过程。由于全国并无名单可用来断定合格选民，公民必须先登记才符合投票资格。想要登记，选民必须满足他们所在州的居住要求，并在期限内登记。登记过程常常促使不同的投票组织进行“催票活动”，例如MTV台为了吸引年轻选民发起了“为投票摇滚”，或是退休人员协会（AARP）为老年人举办选民登记活动。“机动选民”计划则是提供合格选民方便，在申请驾照的同时可以登记投票。美国与他国不同之处在于并无法令要求公民一定要投票。您知道哪一国有此规定吗？了解更多关于投票要求的信息，请阅读以下链接（中文）：http://iipdigital.usembassy.gov/st/chinese/article/2012/01/20120105171614x0.7712017.html#axzz3ulVTTLOO

#US-General Election - Who can vote in the GeneralElection & “Get Out the Vote” Registration Drives 

American citizens ages 18 and older can registerto vote.  Voting in the United States is atwo-step process. There is no national list of eligible voters, so a citizenmust first qualify by becoming registered. To register, voters must meetthe residency requirements of their states and comply with voter-registrationdeadlines.  Often the voter registration processinspires “get out the vote” efforts for different voter groups, such as MTV’s“Rock the Vote” for young voters or the American Association for Retired People(AARP) organizing voter registration for senior citizens.  "Motorvoter" programs offer eligible voters the convenience of registering tovote at the same time as they apply for a driver's license.  Unlike someother countries, however, the United States does not have a law requiringcitizens to vote.  Can you name any country that does?
