Voter registration nears: Staff displays officials cite simplicity Simple. Uncomplicated. Easy. These words aptly describe the voter registration process. Voters just obtain a postage-free Voter Registration Card (VRC), follow the self-explanatory instructions , fill out the the card and drop it in the mail. Voters will then receive registration verification in the mail. VRC's are available at McDonald's hamburger outlets, post offices, city clerk's offices, city and county libraries, chamber's of commerce, San Diego Gas and Electric branch offices and the Department of Motor Vehicles. Voters may also call the
registrar's office (565-VOTE or 5655800) and request a VRC. It will be mailed to the voters' residences. Re-registration is only necessary for voters who have moved since the June 3 primary election. If a voter registered in the past but did not vote in the June election and his residence has remained the same, he is still registered to vote. Registrar officials urge voters who are in doubt about their registration status to telephone the registrar's office. Verification only takes a few minutes. The registration deadline is October 6.
