Voting

An interesting change from the west to the east- When I was in Colorado and even more so at BYU people asked all the time "Are you going to vote?" I think the majority of people that I knew at BYU never voted. Change of pace- out here not a single person asked me if I was going to vote, but when I was going to vote or if I already had voted. I am amazed at people's enthusiasm over politics out here. I don't always love the politics, but I must admit that I love that people appreciate the right that we have to vote. Honestly, getting to the polls was the number one priority yesterday. I think it is quite a priviledge that we have to dictate who our leaders will be and what goes on in our country and we often take advantage of what a blessing it is to have that freedom.
