ALBANY, N.Y. -

A few bills in Albany would allow New Yorkers to register to vote over the Internet.

It would also encourage teens to register, even before they're eligible to vote.

A state senator and an assembly-man will announce the Voter Empowerment Act of New York today.

It aims to end New York's decline in voter turnout.

Officials say, less than 40% of New Yorkers, old enough to vote, did so in the 2010 elections.
