Counting On Your Vote

Did you get your
"I Voted"
sticker this week?

Did you wear it with pride?

Or did you let this year's
"off-season"

election
pass you by?

Let's remember that
EVERY
election counts.

And local elections have an
IMPORTANT
impact on our daily lives.

There's a pithy quote floating
around the internet
that sums up our current situation...

"We in America
do not have government
by the majority.
We have government
by the majority
who participate."


(This is often attributed to Thomas Jefferson,
but monticello.org says he never wrote this...
and they should know!)

Whoever said it,
the message rings true.

Red voters,
Blue voters, 
Purple voters... 

let's all work together,
to make sure the
majority
of us are participating
in the process.

Our democracy 
is counting on
our votes!

All our ballots are mail in. I miss the community spirit of the polling place and the "I voted" stickers.
But it makes it easier for folks to vote.

Totally agree...the community feeling is wonderful, but it's more important to make it easy for everyone to participate! Very grateful for mail-in ballots.
