Time to Vote



Even though I cannot vote in this election, I still believe the election is important to vote and everyone who can vote should vote not only because it is their civic duty, but because everyone’s vote really does count. Look at Florida in the 2000 election.


This year’s election is really important because of the issues that are being brought up in the election. In this year’s election some of the main issues on the line:

· Abortion

· Economic stimulus

· Energy

· Immigration

· Taxes

· War in the Middle East



Another reason why this election is so important is because statically showing this election will be the most young people voting in history. I believe this is important because I think that young people need to understand where they stand on all the issues and which candidate stands more on their same preference. Some young people consider that they should be the same as their parents or they make judgments on candidates based on other things then the issues. When someone is voting they need to consider that they will being putting there vote to a four year plan and that the issues are they only thing that is important. Finally, the future president needs to be globally known and respect because we are choosing a leader to represent us as a leader of the United States of America.
This is why I think this is election is so important and what people need to take into consideration
