When I was 17 in high school I had the option to pre-register to vote.. so I did and they said I would get my voter registration card when I turned 18.. so I turned 18 in Feb.. two months later no card.. so I am like.. wtf I sent in a new one last month with all the stuff they wanted.. copy of drivers license.. etc.. Nothing has came to me in the mail at all.. Hell I got my draft card a week before I turned 18 |

18 year olds still have to register, but they get an acknowledgment form, not the old style draft cards. |

I missed HAVING TO REGISTER FOR THE DRAFT by one day (31 May 1975 was the last "official" day you had to register for the draft).
You could register for the draft 60 days before your 18th B-day, and I walked in the registration center and was informed that it was no longer required. But, I'm not sure when the SSS was re-instated...sometime before 1978...my brother had to register at the local Post Office. Does anyone remember when the SSS requirement came back into affect?

Back when I was 18 -shortly after the earth cooled, the voting age was 21.
I was drafted just before my 21st birthday and never did get to vote until I was 23 and out of the Army. The registration requirement was dropped in 1975, but re-instated in 1980 because of the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan |
