"If you're not registered to vote, then put down that flag, sparkler, and/or red white and blue - frosted cupcake for a minute, and pencil onto your calendar a visit to your local town hall for first thing monday morning. If you don't vote, you don't matter, and whatever it is that people are being all proud about today isn't something you're participating in." -- [livejournal.com profile] marmota, 4 July 2003

[Edit: As has been pointed out in comments, this year Monday is the day folks get their day off work and government offices are closed, so substitute "Tuesday" above.]

Maybe it's different there, but every local goverment office here in California is closed on Monday, July 5th, because of the proximity to the holiday. So, these people will pencil in, show up, see it's closed...and never get around to it again.

Same here.

It's pretty much the case all over, so the quote would need a bit of updating to be applicable.
