What's sad in this election is how powerful the forces are who want to make voting difficult for those in poorer and/or minority districts. Actually, this is nothing new in American politics, but it seems to be getting to the point where this year, the Obama campaign sees the need to have over 1,200 attorneys - 1,200! - standing by at poling places to ensure voters do not get turned away! If voting were only as easy as legally buying a gun.Libbynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1843414525694557803.post-10570026773034303642012-11-04T17:03:43.165-05:002012-11-04T17:03:43.165-05:00Mary,

Not surprised at your experience. Your voice was heard and that matters. <br /><br />I did some phone calling for my candidate recently and was disappointed that a few people I talked to -- both women -- admitted to me that they don't vote, ever. I was shocked, believing as others above, that our right to vote was so hard won, how can you give up on it?<br /><br />Chris<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />Chris Bradyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03400228290978730369noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1843414525694557803.post-89753803366646553712012-11-03T07:34:53.229-04:002012-11-03T07:34:53.229-04:00My name got messed up - Julie VMy name got messed up - Julie VAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1843414525694557803.post-48814637419973267032012-11-03T07:33:30.239-04:002012-11-03T07:33:30.239-04:00You go girl!You go girl!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1843414525694557803.post-670994879806303492012-11-03T07:22:49.924-04:002012-11-03T07:22:49.924-04:00Mary, I love learning the history of your speaking...Mary, I love learning the history of your speaking up-and laughed out loud that you are one of the voices in the local paper who "spouts off"<br />Your reminder<br /> "I do know saying nothing makes no difference at all"<br />is reason all by itself to vote or speak up, even if we wonder if our one voice makes a differenceCarol Fragale Brillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02832865888789761328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1843414525694557803.post-3440168955745653992012-11-03T07:05:27.168-04:002012-11-03T07:05:27.168-04:00So many peoples throughout the world are STILL fig...So many peoples throughout the world are STILL fighting and dying for the right to vote.
