Will you be voting today?
Are you voting in your local election(s) today? Are you a regular voter?
Yes, I'll be engaging in that act of futility shortly. I vote in every election, albeit begrudgingly the past decade and a half or so.
Yes, I am a regular voter. Even when I feel politically discouraged, I still feel it's my duty to vote. If we stop voting, we're just giving away our democracy.
Great to hear, M. T. Dremer! Totally agree!
I actually voted early. Some election seasons it feels like I'm choosing the lesser of two evils but I still vote. I agree with what M.T. Dremer said. I also feel like it's my civic duty to participate. I volunteer, I vote, and I write letters and emails to tell my elected officials how I think they're doing when I think they are messing up in a major way or doing an exceptionally good job. I never attack the person, their party affiliation, or blow off steam to them. I hope that I offer well earned praise and constructive criticism.
Maria Antonia - that is so great to hear you're so active in your community! We need more people like you
Yes. I got my vote in early this morning. I feel like the midterm elections are the most important because they have most impact on us (School Board, City Council,etc.)
