March so he could not vote this time around. He is so bummed. He said several of his friends (who are already 18) said they are not going to vote today. Smh

Their parents ought to be dragging them to the polls. Most people that age are still in school and living with their parents, so the parents should be able to enforce that. That's a failure in parenting. Well, maybe they are conservative and it is a good thing that they aren't interested in showing up. Let's hope that is the case.

I was so bummed that I turned 18 the week AFTER the presidential election in 96. I have voted in every election I could ever since then. I looked forward to voting ever since I was a little girl and I always remembered it being a FUN special day when I would go to the polls with my Mom and my Grandma.
