You Count

Last month there was an election for city councilman, and the winner was victorious by 3 votes. It's a great example to show how everyone's votes count. I mention that because a lot of Americans headed to the polls today. Included on my ballot besides presidential primaries was the proposition to allow liquor stores to be open on Sundays. Because I signed up for absentee balloting I had my vote turned in last month. I am glad I didn't have to brave the crowds today although some participated in early voting and skipped the lines. What else was in your ballot? Did you get a chance to vote? If you aren't an American, when was the last time you voted?

I vote in every election. Our election is on March 17; but I voted by absentee ballot. We had a levy for the schools and for one of the public libraries.

It's so important! I like absentee voting because I never miss anything up for a vote. A lot of people aren't even aware of certain elections.

@AmbiePam I know. That's how the schools, etc. slip a levy by people.

In Australia, it is compulsory to vote. I think it is a good thing really; otherwise, it is likely that very few would vote.
