By voting, you are making your voice heard and showing your opinion on how you think the government should operate.

It is important for people to have their voices heard. A lot of people think "oh, my one vote won't matter", but because of the Electoral College, it does.

In the previous election (last year), more people didn't vote, than all the votes for Hillary Clinton and president Trump combined. Had the thousands of people that did not vote actually voted, we may have had a different outcome for this election.
Voting is a privilege. We should use it to try and get the best leaders for our country that we can.
