Exercise Your Right to Vote

A friend recently e-mailed to remind me that the deadline to register to vote in the 2007 Cherokee Nation elections is January 26, 2007, at 5:00PM. The special election to determine whether the Freedmen will be expelled and barred from the tribe has been rescheduled for March 3, 2007. I don't think it's an exagerration to say this will be the most important election for the tribe since 1975. All enrolled Cherokee should register and cast a ballot to determine the future of the Nation.
