§ 2111 Citizen Proof By Affidavit

• •You can show you're a citizen by signing a special paper (affidavit) that says you are.
• •If you lie on this paper, you can get in big trouble (like going to court for lying).
• •This paper is part of signing up for something (like voting).

You want to vote in an election.

When you register to vote, you sign a paper saying you're a citizen. If you lie and say you're a citizen when you're not, you can get in trouble for perjury.
