Today is Election Day. We had some pretty important races here in Florida – Governor, Senate, to name just a couple. Timon and I received our ballots in the mail fairly early, and if anything, it has increased the campaign phone calls we get. My favorites have been from the celebrities/former politicians who are asking for our votes for the candidate they’ve endorsed. So far we’ve heard from Pres. Bill Clinton, Star Jones, and Gov. Jeb Bush. Another candidate’s mother called us. It’s annoying. But we vote anyway.
Why should we vote?
- To speak your mind
- To make politicians listen
- For your children
- For your community
- For yourself
- To honor history
- To control your future
- To stop something
- To start something
- To win
…Because we can.

Voting is both a privilege and a responsibility.
I voted by mail a couple weeks ago, so I've been hanging up on all the phone calls as soon as they come in.
