It’s hard to feel like your vote counts, but if it’s added to other votes, it builds momentum. I am still an idealist

I voted to ban that rule of confining the piggies. It was the only thing approved on the ballot that year that mirrored my vote. This is why sometimes I feel like my vote doesn’t count. And yet, I am going to try to go early vote later today.

I know they do. They make me ill as well, but I wanted to research that specific amendment because I’ve seen the ads (and I heard something about it on NPR this morning). I hope the last link will help people make educated decisions.

I’m glad I know what that is now. I figured there were too many slick commercials for Amendment 3, i.e. meaning rich groups wanted it passed, which immediately means I go in the opposite direction. With many of these things I fear that people won’t know what these things are for, and let’s not forget the deviously worded item on the ballot on the previous election, tricking people into reversing their vote on what was it, bullet train or something, that the same people voted for prior to that. Politics make me ill.
