Today is election day.
A time to get out, cast a vote, and be heard.
I've paid a good amount of attention to my local ballot issues and to who the candidates are.
I have listened to countless people in my little world talk about their views and I have formed my own opinions on each of the things that need to be addressed on the ballot.
Still, as a total proponent of getting out to vote - I have very little desire to participate this year.
I know it's a privelege to do so but I am just feeling rather uninspired this year. The ballot issues that are on this year aren't really terribly important to me and the candidate choices are slim at best. I'm not sure any of them belong in public service.
But I am sure I will trot on out and do the right thing this afternoon and vote. Then I can collect my "I VOTED!" sticker and impress upon my children the value of this service....
