Early Voting starts Monday

OK fellow Texans.

Early voting starts on Monday.

If you are registered to vote (and if you’re not, why aren’t you?), if you know who you are going to vote for, you best make sure you get to the polls and cast your vote!

If you are registered but don’t yet know who you are going to vote for, you best get yourself educated quickly! Then go cast your vote.

There’s no excuse to not vote.

If you think one vote can’t make a difference, think if everyone thought that way. If instead you think that your one vote can make a difference and everyone thinks this way, then look at the turnout we’d have! Races can and have been decided by one vote. Your vote matters! If nothing else, that you voted also validates your “I can bitch about things” card… you know, don’t vote, don’t bitch. 🙂

If you want to not vote as your way of voicing your opinion, realize that doesn’t work in our current system. The system doesn’t tally who doesn’t vote, only who votes. Lack of voting as an explicit message just gets lumped in with the people who didn’t vote because they didn’t give a darn or couldn’t be bothered to get out of bed in the morning. So if you are trying to say something, you must vote!

Vote!

  1. If they haven’t been paying attention to what the Democrats have been doing to this country and the Constitution for the last twenty months, they really shouldn’t be voting.

    They’re probably the ones that said “Oh look, everyone I know is voting for the Chicago Jeezus, so I guess I will too!”

    • That last line made me laugh. 🙂

      To be fair, this happens with both major parties. But I do see your point. I do think it’s sad that more people turn out to vote for things like American Idol and are more educated about who is on Dancing with the Stars and what happened on Jersey Shore last night. But I guess then… we reap what we sow. *sigh*
