Election Day isn't just another day for the kids to sleep late and for teachers to enjoy a day off.

It is a day to exercise your right to vote.

It is not complicated. You will be required to vote at a specific location, often a school near the address you used when registering to vote. If you still don't know where to go, try Raise Your Vote's Polling Places for voting details. If you are more comfortable using Facebook, go here to find your voting information. Another voting-finder service is the Google Election Center. All three sites will quickly tell you where you should go to vote.

• President Obama and Civil Rights Leaders Seek to Energize Black Voters
• Common Joins President Obama to Get Out the Vote
• Russell Simmons Urges the African-American Community to Vote

Make sure you bring photo identification when going to vote. The election Website for your home state will also provide information on exactly what type of information will be needed to cast a ballot.

The League of Women Voters has established a Website called Vote 411 at www.vote411 that will answer questions you have about voting in the United States. The Website also has a polling place finder that contains a database on where you should vote.

So there are no more excuses. Go out and vote.
