Organizers push to register voters, registration deadline December 7

ATLANTA - It’s the final push to get as many people registered to vote by the December 7th deadline.

“I can honestly tell you I don’t think I’ve ever experienced what we are doing now as far as a runoff,” Linda Rigby-Bridges said.

Linda Rigby Bridges is with the nonpartisan organization League of Women Voters and works around the clock to get people registered to vote.

“I urge everyone just like we came out for the presidential. Put your boots on. Do the same. It’s very important for the Senate race. It doesn’t matter who you vote for but it does matter if you vote,” Rigby-Bridges said.
