VOTE
Election Day is just a few days away. In a campaign season often marked by distinct differences between candidates and political parties on issues, there is one thing on which they all can agree – the importance of coming out to vote.
I have personally witnessed many close elections in my time. These elections are won or lost by less than 200 votes with recounts taking many weeks. It is particularly troubling when you discover that the turnout in these races was below 40 or even 30 percent of enrolled voters. A few made a decision that affected many and only a few more could have changed the outcome.
