I woke up super early this morning so I go could cast my vote! It amazes me how many people still don't vote for a myriad of reasons. There are definitely things I wish were different, and living in NY I feel like politics is just a game of people who make a bunch of empty promises, and try to get as much attention as possible. The presidential election is something that is special for so many reasons. Whether your candidate wins or loses, you possess a right that countries are fighting for and dying for. This is also a great time to talk about policies and government with your children. When they ask for that extra $ for allowance, or wonder why their school doesn't have enough text books or teachers. Politics affects all of us as soon as we enter this world. So getting up a few minutes early to travel a few extra block is worth the possibility of being a part of a better world.
Go Vote,
The Diva
