Voting...

I voted today and that is something that I am thankful for! In many countries people are not allowed to vote and in many women are not allowed to vote. I am thankful for the option to be able to vote and make decisions about where my hard earned money goes. I hate when people complain about laws, taxes, leadership etc. and they never even voted on it! I read an article today that said on a non-governor or presidential election the turnout is only around 19% in my state. For a big election for president or governor its around 50%. That is astounding to me! In this day and age when it is so easy to vote on election day, do an absentee vote, or even vote early there is no excuse! So today I am thankful that I made an educated and well thought out vote!
