I remember voting for Ralph Nader in elementary school when we got to simulate the election process. I had heard my grandmother rave about him so much, I colored in the dot by his name as soon as I saw it.
This year, I did things a little differently. I didn't vote based on what my grandmother wanted, and I didn't vote for anyone just because I had heard a name just times. I voted because I was educated and I made my own choice.
My vote for president counts in Florida because it's where I'm from, and I am proud to say I have already voted absentee.
Tomorrow — I hope not Wednesday — we will find out who will be our next President of the United States. A small number of people in my home state decided the 2000 election's outcome, and that's proof that my vote counts, and so does yours.
In addition to changing the White House you have the power to also change the Kansas Statehouse and Douglas County Courthouse
Barack Obama and our local Democratic candidates represent the kind of change we need. You can help us create an economy that works for the middle class, promote renewable energy sources and provide health care for all citizens by supporting Democrats running for the Kansas Statehouse and Douglas County Courthouse.
JOIN ME IN VOTING FOR ALL THE DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATES ON NOVEMBER 4th
- Gov. Kathleen Sebelius
Paid for by the Douglas County Democratic Party. Carrie Moore, Treasurer.
