It's your right

I used to be guilty of not voting.  For years.  I registered when I was eighteen years old but did not hit the polls for the first time until I was over thirty.  For shame.  Now I proudly exercise that right, the one countless lives were lost in order to grant me.  And you. I vote even when my ideal candidate is not on the ballot.  I vote because it is my right and my duty.  I vote because I refuse to believe my vote doesn't count. I believe it does.  I believe yours does too...
