 Why Vote?
  • Most people believe that once they turn 18 its their time to move out on their own. Others realize that turning 18 opens up many doors for you to participate in the community and to make it a better place. Once you turn 18 you can register to vote. Most people do not register as soon as they turn 18 and this is a huge mistake. Voting is crucial to the success of the United States. Although you might not think so, every vote counts! Your vote could make the difference of an office official. If you want our country to succeed then the best thing to do is to research who is making a difference and vote for them in the next elections!
