I have read many reports that a lot of people are voting for the first time this year! This year will be my 2nd time voting. I cant say I am more into voting this year then I was the last time. I do think I support my party a little more this time around. Are you a first time voter? Why did you sign up to vote this year? For those who have voted before are you looking foward to voting this year more than any time before?

Sarah, No, this is not my first year that I have voted. I have been voteing for many years.I really think that I am more into voting this year than I was in the previous years, because there is more at stake right now, than ever before. The economy is so very bad right now, and I am very concerned about the way our country is going.This however is the first year that I will not be supporting my party when I vote.Because I think that the cantidate from the other party is the right choice for a change for us.

I wont ask your party but you did use the word change maybe that is a little hint of who you are voting for :). I am very fearful of the way our country is going too. I worry that my children wont have a lot of rights. With the way the economy is going i stay home most days. And because of choices of our current president i maybe moving out of the country if there is not a right change. i will say its 50% choice and 50% i have to move out of the country.

sarah, I know what you mean, my children are grown now, but I am now worried about my grandchildren, and their rights. I too am concerned about they way our counry is going. I have been a republican all my life, I am voting for Obama this year. I do not blame you for thinking about moving out of the country, I too have thought of this, as I can not really make it here anymore. God Bless. Thanks for best response.
