In this day and age of voting

in #vote6 years ago

So first off .... I haven't voted in years (this may piss people off) however , I live in a state (Utah) where we are trying to legalize, medical marijuana and as a chronic pain sufferer, I absolutley must vote and support those who should get the choice between Big pharma drugs or mother natures drugs. But it makes me sick when I hear stories of corruption even in the voting system. What is wrong with our leaders? We as voters , hold these so -called leaders, to a higher standard but they themselves act like thug gang bangers. I was just reading about a Man running for govener(Brian Kemp) in Georgia where they have the name exact match system but this man also over sees state election so he's the player and the empire! Say what?! He even got founded out that he had a state trooper pull over a bus of senior 's on their way to vote and had them pulled off the bus saying the bus didnt get approval to escort them to vote. Worse yet had a lady arrested for helping her blind father vote. Where is the integrity ? Everything on tv is trying to scare people to vote ! But when we do it turns into a huge dramatic pointing fingers game. This does not make me feel like a proud citizen of the Untied States. This was just my own personal beef for the day and since my popularity score is bad on Fb and im considered "un -loyal" I cant rant or ill really be unpopular. 😰
