Here we are, on the cusp of what may be the most exciting election of my lifetime! Living in California, media continually remind us that "your vote doesn't matter" in a state where John Kerry is predicted to capture all 55 electoral votes. However, I feel very strongly about always exercising my right to vote, and I also want to provide my kids the correct civic example.
This year, I think the result of the presidential election will come about if enough young people will get to the polls. Opinion polls typically only sample land lines; many twenty-year-olds only have cell phones, and therefore haven't been polled on their preference. It's already November 2 on the East Coast! Scary thought!
I wonder if anyone will get a good sleep tomorrow night???
