Are you worried by your prospects (or shall I say lack thereof) for a stable job post college graduation? Are you concerned about how you will afford health insurance once you are kicked off your parent's plan? Under the Affordable Care Act, by the way, you have until you are 26 to figure that out. Are you concerned about financing your college education? Or perhaps, are you now faced with the challenge of working yourself out of debt accrued from years of sky high tuition?
Me too.
Fortunately, you have a choice on Tuesday. The outcome of this race will directly affect you, and you have a say in the matter! Each vote counts the same as the next and each vote adds to the total. The only voice that goes unheard is the vote not cast. Get to your polling place November 6th and make your voice heard.
That being said, for your voice to reflect your thoughts on the questions posed above, work must be put into your decision prior to election day. Contemplate your stance on these pivotal issues and research parallels between your thoughts and the platforms of each presidential candidate. I challenge you to search further than the super PAC ads constantly run on television. Pick up a newspaper, research reputable online sites, tune into news programs... engage in political debate with others! When you honestly open your ears to opposite viewpoints, you'll be surprised what you can learn about your own. Whether you switch sides on a debate or reinforce your own views, you will gain perspective on the extensive, divisive issues currently facing our nation.
