That�s the plan at today�s East End Festival. Monroe County Democrats have teamed up with High Falls Brewery to offer two free 2-ounce beers to those who register to vote at the festival.
Then the new voter can go into a real voting booth and pick the brew they liked the most. The promotion is called �Register Your Taste.�



Rest of the article

Well now all the beer drinkers are for the democrats.

How about "vote for Republican get a free cigar"

Hey of all the tactics I've seen to get people to vote that one's a first.

Wow going to the last resort. Free beer.

Looks like to me the Dems are getting desperate to get votes. Though I do bet people are going to register anyway for the free beer.

Ahem. Read the article.

Interesting promotion: Here's how it works.

1. You register to vote.

2. The Brewery gives you a simulated "voting" experience in a voting booth, which is just a taste test.

3. Having registered to vote, later on you vote for whomever you please.

4. Wowsers complain about the connection of the civic duty of voting with alcohol consumption.

That's all folks.

It seems a good attempt at getting people to register, upping voter turnout hopefully.

4 oz? I need to be drunker than that to vote for Kerry...

KIDDING! He's got my vote, but the brew would be a nice lil perk, though.

This leads me to believe that most people that don't vote MIGHT be on the liberal side. They aren't giving beer to you to vote a certian way, they're giving you beer to vote, or at least register. Interesting.

Believe me, folks, this is nothing new. I can remember growing up, and on election day,there would be cars going around giving people a ride to the voting booths. There were always bottles of booze under the seat to help the people to 'decide'.

Legal? Probably not, but that's the way it was. Times were much different then.
