How important is it to vote this year?

It is extremely important to me to vote this year. Not only in the Presidental election but also in my state elections. Kentucky is voting on adding an admendment to the state constitution banning same sex marriage. Sadly, it will likely pass, but I will not sit by and let the rest of the state tell me I'm unworthy of rights without having a voice (my vote) heard.

Here`s CNN report on the problems in Florida.

It`s a bit long but I suggest anyone interested in a fair vote read it.

"A repetition of the problems of 2000 now seems likely," said former President Jimmy Carter in a Washington Post guest editorial. "Some of the state's leading officials hold strong political biases that prevent necessary reforms."

I believe that voting is extremely important and I vote in every election. Unfortunately I live in Florida where fair and accurate voting is about as likely to happen as in Saddam Hussein's Iraq days.
