Salina, Kans. -- J.R. Claeys, Republican candidate for Kansas Secretary of State, launched a new website today to help register Kansans to vote. ExerciseYourRight.org contains all the forms necessary to register to vote and apply for an absentee ballot. The site also links to the Federal Voter Assistance Program to register military personnel and Kansans living abroad during the election.

"ExerciseYourRight.org is a simple, uncluttered way to access the most common voter forms," said Claeys. "In addition to being open to the public, it will be used by our grassroots campaign to register new voters across Kansas before the election in 2010."

Claeys announced in December he is exploring a run for the Republican nomination for Kansas Secretary of State.
