super tuesday

Super Tuesday is quickly approaching and I hope that everyone else is excited as I am about this chance to vote. I am only 19 years old; I did not get a chance to vote in the last presidential election and I am ready to vote for the candidate I want to run this country. I want everyone, young and old, to go to the polls on February 5. I would particularly would love to see a huge turnout in young voters like we saw in the Iowa Caucus and New Hampshire. The young voters in this country can change this election dramatically. There were 4.6 million more young voters (under the age of 30) that voted in the 2004 election then there were in the 2000 election. The young voters favored the democrat side, and I personally believe that will be the case this election.
This super Tuesday will be able to show us who the clear front runners are in the republican feild and just confuse more people in the democrat side. I cant wait till the end of this is over and there is a democrat as president.

- I don't agree with the 200 word limit, i think that it should be lowered. I am having to add more and change my blog so that it will be long enough.

For the first time since I turned 18, I'm not going to the polls. I don't particularly support any of the candidates in either party, so would rather not vote at all right now than vote for someone I can't support 100%.

We changed the word requirement because users requested it left and right. The influx of 100 word pointless and/or plagiarized postings last contest were the last straws for quiet a few.

Most of the best blogs on the site far surpass 200 words. Just something to think about.

Please use the reply link when responding to a comment. It helps the flow of conversation better.

And this is true, so let me rephrase.

The blogs that get the most conversation and (thus) the most attention (in reads) are usually those with more than 200 words. That's completely relevant to the scholarship contest.

See, I blog for fun and not for the scholarship. Also, this blog that i have written here was published in the main newspaper in nashville,tn. I blog for them, and i can write as much or as little as possible, but i come here and i have to add more.
