This year is an important year for the self-employed and micro-business communities. This year we have an opportunity to decide who is best able to address our needs and that of our businesses in local, state and federal government. What makes this year even more significant is that we also have a chance to choose our next President of the United States. Thus, on behalf of the National Association for the Self-Employed, I encourage you to make your voice heard this election year by voting on November 4th.

To assist you in making educated choices in the ballot box, the NASE has created Election Watch 2008, a special section on our website. Election Watch 2008 offers you an array of information on the presidential candidates, links to your federal and state candidates, and resources on how to register to vote in your state. We will be frequently updating Election Watch 2008 this year with relevant, informative materials so I encourage you to visit this section often.

One voice, one vote can make a difference so speak out for micro-business and go to the polls on November 4th!

NASE President Robert Hughes
