Amanda Perez, right, a senior from Chicago studying computer science, registers to vote in Jackson County Friday with the help of Larry Luster, center, a 2009 SIU alumnus from Springfield, and Jeremy Brister, a sophomore from Chicago studying sports administration, both affiliates with sponsor Omega Psi Phi. Many students experience obstacles when figuring out how to vote at college, Luster said. By printing the online form, making it immediately available to students and also offering to submit the form, Luster said the table serves as an important mediator and convenience for those who don’t have the time to go through the process. “The opportunity to register on my way to class made a difference,” Perez said. “Otherwise, I probably wouldn’t have been able to find the time to register to vote.” Voter registration ended Tuesday, but a grace period runs until Nov. 3 that requires voters to register with photo identification and a proof of residence to cast a ballot at the Jackson County courthouse.Tiffany Blanchette-Daily Egyptian
