Nevada Secretary of State Ross Miller says he wants to knock some sense into voters.
He is teaming up with UFC for a voter registration rally called “Fight for Your Ultimate Right” at noon on Wednesday in Pida Plaza, which is part of a campaign aimed at inspiring voter turnout.
Two-time heavyweight champion Frank Mir and Roy “Big Country” Nelson will speak at the event.
“The deadline for voting is Oct. 2, so we want everyone to vote as soon as possible,” Miller said.
“We are going to be highlighting the new online system where you can sign up with your Nevada ID,” Miller said.
The event will last about half an hour and attendees will receive free T-shirts.
Both Mir and Nelson are Las Vegas natives. Mir, who is openly liberal, is known for his will to use his celebrity status to speak out on political issues.
This is the second time Miller, a long-time fighting fan, has partnered with UFC to push political involvement. He released a video in 2008 that included several prominent fighters, including Chuck Liddell, and UFC President Dana White.
