in 2000 but did not vote. They have a GREAT early-voting-info-by-zipcode page at
http://www.ezvote.org . Just type in your 5-digit zipcode and you'll get the most thorough neighborhood voter info I've ever seen, including specific directions for voting early the easiest way possible in your area.
The 'Business-Industry Political Action Committee" (BIPAC) is the host of this page and the source of the graphic in the WSJ article. A press release on the BIPAC website is very informative:
From
http://bipac.org/detail.asp?id=1298"Census Bureau figures show that ONLY 12.2% OF REGISTERED VOTERS WHO DIDN'T GO TO THE POLLS IN 2000 SAY THEY HAD NO INTEREST. THAT LEAVES 88.8% OF REGISTERED NON-VOTERS -- MORE THAN 16 MILLION PEOPLE -- who might overcome the 'too inconvenient' or 'I forgot' barriers if an early voting option is easily available.
EZVote features a website that explains early voting and allows visitors to find information about its availability in their state simply by entering a zip code. The website is accessed through colorful links that participating businesses can post on their company websites. EZVote targets employees of thousands of businesses, including half of the Fortune 100, that now use a company website to communicate with workers about the importance of voting and about the candidates and issues that impact their jobs and industry.
