SMACKDOWN YOUR VOTE! RALLY AT SHU, SEPT. 12
With November elections fast approaching, Sacred Heart University students will have the opportunity to become engaged in the political process and register to vote at a WWE “Smackdown Your Vote!” rally on September 12 at 11:00 a.m. WWE Raw Superstar Shelton Benjamin and WWE Political Correspondent Christopher Nowinski will host the rally in the University Cafeteria/Mahogany Room. All students are welcome to attend.

Benjamin and Nowinski will address the students in a high energy presentation that will encourage them to register to vote and head to the polls in November. Voter registration materials will be available at the rally.

Many state and local political dignitaries are expected to attend.

WWE's Smackdown Your Vote! is an "apartisan" campaign to encourage young people to become active participants in their democracy and vote. Working with several non-partisan partners and the major political parties, WWE and its Superstars have the sole focus of encouraging more young people to register and vote, and to have more candidates for political office address the credible issues of Americans under 30.

This is the University's second Smackdown Your Vote! rally. The first, held in 2004, was hosted by WWE superstars Christopher Nowinski and Mark Henry.
