Letter to the editor: All votes are important
I just have to sound off on the lack of concern for the nearing presidential election. I have heard, “My one vote will not make any difference.”
If it was just that one vote that we missed, maybe so. But I have heard this more than just one time. That is what has me upset. It is a privilege to vote and have some sort of say, no matter how small, in the future of our next generation(s). I would do anything for my family. I believe that voting is one of those things that I need to do as a good parent and grandparent. So voting to me is not an option. It is an obligation to my family that I love dearly. My question is this: Why would any intelligent American want to leave the future of their family to a so-called “wheel of chance?”
