Election Day Only 26 Days Away

Early voting for the November 2 mid-term election is now underway in a number of states.  News reports indicate that the number of voters who cast early ballots in this year's primary elections increased 50 percent over the 2006 midterm, a trend that is reshaping political campaigns across the country. State laws differ nationwide, and many of them are making it easier for individuals to vote if they cannot make it to the polls in November. As you know, this election is very important for the construction industry and AGC encourages you to support pro-construction candidates running for federal office. To see if you are eligible or for more information on the rules for early voting in your state, visit the AGC website and enter your zip code. Additionally, the website includes the AGC voting record for incumbents in your state.
