Elections are coming up, and you get a letter in the mail or an email telling you where to go along with the division you are in as well as the dates of the voting. Most of us don't even know who to vote for or why we even vote in the first place.
If you don't live in town it's a long drive to find a voting station and when you get there you end up confused as where to go and you usually have to wait for other people to finish their votes. It's usually a long and arduous process and not fun at all.
There should be a way in this day and age to have people vote online with their phones. It should be a simple process that anyone can access and can only vote one time. Not only could you vote but there should be infomercials on each person or topic you are voting for so that you are well informed before you make your decision.
I don't know about you but to me it doesn't seem to matter what or who you vote for anyway, the result almost always ends up in disappointment. We are never happy with the new official that gets into power.
The promises that are made get broken, the new elected official does things that makes everyone in the country upset but they don't seem to care. I'm sure that other people get pretty upset when someone comes in and starts to ruin this country and when their term is over they get millions of dollars in pension for all their hard work and service to the country.
We should get a vote on that. If a law or tax that get made that does nothing but line the pockets of greedy politicians we should be able to vote that crap out.
The bottom line is that fewer and fewer people are voting, not only because it's difficult to vote in the first place but also because when we do vote the results are usually disappointing.
