The Importance of Voting

On Tuesday, we've got an election in this country - that I believe is critical. I hope you'll go out and vote.

This fall, I met a man who was a musician in a band at a wedding reception. We got talking over the dinner break. he's from Central America, came to the US, became a citizen, now he's married with 2 kids. You know what he was so excited about? Voting! Where he came from, that wasn't an option. ow, he gets to have a say in who leads his adopted home country.

In past elections, I've mixed up my votes for different people based on issues, character and other factors. For years I was a registered independent. But, I have to say, this year, with one exception, I'm voting for all Democrats. I just feel as if the GOP has become the party of the Ultra Far Right. They've gone too far, and we need to restore a balance to our government.

Regardless of how you feel, I hope you'll go out and vote on Tuesday, November 7th.
