HAWKINS, Texas — Jarvis Christian University in Hawkins will host a voter registration drive Thursday.
The drive will be held in the Jarvis Student Center from 11:30 a.m. to 2 p.m. Thursday at the main campus.
“Regardless of how you plan to vote, whether Democrat, Republican, Libertarian, or Independent, the first step is to be registered to vote,” said JCU senior business major Jhavier’ Law, president of the Theta Alpha Chapter of the Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity, Inc.
Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity is hosting the event to make sure college students can vote locally in upcoming elections, Jarvis said in a statement.
“Our national program titled ‘A Voteless People is a Hopeless People’ is part of our mission to make sure everyone who qualifies to vote is registered so their voices can be heard and counted at the polls," Law said.
