Voting and Elections

Voting and Elections in America. This is one of the most important things we can do as citizens. Yet voter turnout in this country as dismally low, less than 60% for presidential elections and even less for other elections. On top of that, the Right wing manipulates the voting system to make sure it is too complicated to vote. They use tactics such as jerrymandering, voter ID, closing polling stations and purging voter records so people are no longer registered. If we would get everyone to the polling stations, we might have a chance at some real change. It’s an uphill battle, be we need to fight it.
