Voter registration and turnout are up. If the Democratic Primary is an indication of what’s to come, we can expect big numbers in November. But the long shadow of 2000 and 2004 still looms. Will voting be fair and will everyone registered to vote be able to do so without standing on line for six hours or battling with poll workers? And will new technology make voting easier and more accessible?

Coming up tonight on GRITtv Henry Serrano, Senior Organizer and Coordinator of the Voter Engagement Project and Community Voices Heard, Brian Lee of the Asian American Legal Defense and Education Fund (AALDEF), Steven Carbo, Senior Program Director of the Democracy Project at Demos, and Susan Lerner Executive Director of Common Cause discuss the big issues facing organizers as they get out the vote. If they don’t convince you to register and to vote, perhaps Christina Aguilera will.
