Voter Advice: What You Need to Know on Election Day

Nov. 3, 2008 — -- With the election just hours away, voters want to make sure they have everything in order so that their votes will count.

Some states require that employers pay employees for time off while they are voting, while others require employees to request time off from their employers in advance.

To be safe you shouldn't wear your campaign stuff when you go to vote.

Note: Beware of false flyers like one in Virginia telling voters that because of high turnout Republicans will vote Tuesday and Democrats Wednesday.

Also watch out for inaccurate e-mails out there like one going around telling Barack Obama voters that for their vote to count, after they vote for him they then have to vote straight Democratic on the ballot.
