“'One vote doesn't matter, right?'
I'm hearing that a lot, and I keep wondering who out there actually thinks they only have one vote? President, that's one right? But there's Senator, Congressperson, Mayor, Judges, DAs, school officials, and I haven't even gotten the ballot initiatives on rights, energy use, the death penalty and so on.
There could be more than twenty choices on your ballot that will affect your life. From the top down to the bottom up. We have to stop thinking 'one vote' — think about how we are going to guide this country, because that we only have one of.”
