Everyone Should Vote

It is a prividlege to vote in most countries, but in the united states we are born with the RIGHT to vote which is an amazing right that we all should appericate greatly! Would you beleive that some statistics show only about half of the (voting-age) population voted in the last presidential election. Don't you want a chance to choose you leader? why wonder when you have one! Get out and vote, every one that can should be taking advantage of this amazing oppurtunity!!!

6.04 Reflection Questions • How does the product you created encourage citizens to vote? It gives anyone the proper resources to not be afraid of voting, so they know what to expect and everything runs smoothly. • What obstacles to voting exist in your community? You must have proper identification and a signature. • Would you recommend any changes in the voter registration procedures you researched? If so, what would you recommend? I would make registering online very easy and the ability to register at the polls before you vote. • Based on your research, what do you think should be done to increase voter registration in the United States? I think we should make voting easier. If people were more helpful and it was easier to register more people would vote.
