Democracy is being allowed to vote for the candidate you dislike least. ~Robert Byrne
| DO YOU VOTE? "No." WHY NOT? "Personally I just didn't think it was worth voting this last election for the president cause I didn't think my vote would make a difference. That was the first election I really watched and the debates, out of my whole life. I don't personally know too much about the whole political type thing. If not 100% sure, I don't usually put myself out there." WHAT ABOUT LOCAL ELECTIONS? "Again, I never really got involved. I don't really know what's going on. I'm kind of in a shell with that. I never was taught that as a kid (the importance of politics and voting)." |
IS THAT SOMETHING YOU'D LIKE TO CHANGE IN THE FUTURE?
"Oh yeah. I now believe it would make a difference. As a child and young adult, I am still young (20's), I didn't think it'd make a difference. But I do now believe it impacts everyone. With taxes and things of that nature."
SO YOU CAN SEE YOURSELF IN THE NEXT ELECTION GETTING MORE INVOLOVED?
"I definitely would. I mean I'm not hiding in the dark with it all. I just don't know too much about it- to just go and vote. Because then if they messed up the world, I'd feel like it was my fault. Then I'd feel like if I didn't vote for him, maybe he wouldn't have messed up the world. Kind of a mind conflict."
