Hi Ted, <div><br></div><div>Last election my daughter made the "my vote doesn't matter" statement. She will never nit vote again! <div><br></div><div>I've added to my original plan, instead if arguing on Facebook, posts which aggravate me, i post this "Your vote IS your voice. Register to vote. If registered, confirm identIfication needed to vote. Vote as if your life depends on it, because it does." lots of positive feedback, one "angry" face. Lol. Cracked me up. Why would someone be angry? <br><br>On Saturday, June 16, 2018, Ted Moffett <<a href="mailto:starbliss@gmail.com">starbliss@gmail.com</a>> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div>Janesta-</div><div><br></div><div>I could read your post just fine, and your idea of business sized cards on how to register to vote that you can hand out is great!</div><div><br></div><div>As most everyone knows, voter participation in the US is overall sadly very low, and the message "Your Vote is Your Voice" is apparently ignored by many...</div><div><br></div><div>I have heard some very smart people argue it just does not matter if they vote!
