Use your VOTER voice

Your vote is your voice

When my kids were small we talked about using our "indoor voice" and our "outdoor voice" when trying to teach courteous and practical volume control. But there's only one appropriate volume to use when voting. It's your affirmative voice, to tell the world what you want and how it should comport itself.

So do that, please!

Your Vote is your Power

Make your voice heard.

Does your state allow advance voting?

Big election. Don't miss out.

Dear Citizens of the USA:

Please plan to vote.
Please learn about the issues, the candidates, the propositions and ballot measures.
If you haven't started educating yourself, start now!
Once you've gained a good background, put it to work.
Make your voice heard.
VOTE.
