I did it! I got up early this morning and, after dropping my daughter off at school for early morning band sectionals, I went directly to city hall and cast my vote for President. I was so surprised at how busy it was at 7:15 this morning, but, then again, they were lined up at city hall on Saturday, so I think a lot of people are just trying to avoid the crowds on November 4.
My sister had this on her site at The Pond and tagged me. I think I would’ve shared it even if she hadn’t tagged me because I really do think it is important.
I don’t really talk much politics and I believe everyone has a right to their own opinion. However, everyone in the United States also has a right to vote. Please don’t tell me you’re one of those people that sits around complaining about the administration, or the economy, or the war, or anything else affecting our lives, but you don’t take advantage of your right to vote. Voting is so simple and yet, one of the most important events we can take part in. I don’t just vote in the big presidential elections, but I also vote in local elections that affect my daughter’s education, our property taxes, our utility bills, etc. and so should you.
This is a great video.
If the deadline in your state hasn’t all ready passed, I know it has here in Texas, please make sure to register to vote.
