Honestly... how many? Many of us would answer "no" to this. If no, then why vote for someone tha we do not know what they stand for? Because of their their party affiliation?

I find it a reoccuring theme amongst young adults to vote for someone because of their political party. They have never even seen the name before, but the fact that there is an "R" or "D" by their name is what wins their vote. To me, this does not make sense. I believe it to be very easy to look up a little information on who one is to be voting for. So why do people do this? Probably for the same reason many young adults do not vote in the presidential elections... laziness.

So the popular question today was, "Did you vote today?" Did I vote today? No. I didn't vote today. I had no say in who was to be elected into the House or Senate. Frankly, I'm not fans of anyone who was running. I think it's quite sad the way they all portrayed themselves.

From one negative campaign ad to another, I couldn't tell who was worse. I think it's truly sad that we have politicians that, instead of saying what good they're going to bring if  they're elected, they can only tell the past of the other candidates. That doesn't help me in my decision at all! I don't want to know the distortated past that each and every person puts out there! I want to know why they're running and what they're going to be doing for ME.
