Get out and vote

I just went and no one was voting, no big signs, no people on the road yelling a politicians name, nothing. It may be a local thing but regardless of who you like, get out there and exercise your right to vote.

I got an email from the town today reminding me where to vote and what time the polls are open until. I'll vote after work, as well. Even if the result is pre-determined I can at least feel like I did my part.

Conservatism is not about leaving people behind. Conservatism is about empowering people to catch up, to give them tools at their disposal that make it possible for them to access all the hope, all the promise, all the opportunity that America offers. - Marco Rubio

Guys, vote, several towns have items on the ballot to limit going over the XX% allowed for tax increases to support the local budgets. Now is your opportunity to tell them you want to hold the line on property taxes.. I work with an O-bot who claims he voted against the tax increase in North Attleboro.
