A recent editorial published in the Utica Observer-Dispatch discussed the efforts of Young Han '06 to register to vote with the Oneida County Board of Elections. According to the editorial, "Discouraging anyone from voting is the antithesis of democracy. To have the board of elections be the ones doing the discouraging is ludicrous."
Han has attempted to register with the board of elections three times and claims that on each occasion he was told to register as an absentee voter in Washington, his home state.
