   Pretty much sums up my convo with my 13 yr old last night--for when she turns 18.

   Me: "I don't care if you hate politics. I don't care if you find it boring. Always look up who's running & ALWAYS vote."

   I gave examples of times when races were *extremely* close & horrible people who did horrible things won.

   Showing her the huge # of non-voters reinforced how easy it would have been to have a better outcome--if people had just voted.

   (She fully understood at just 13.)

     People didn't fucking DIE for YOU to VOTE only to have you SELFISHLY NOT participate.

     Paul Cantrell repeated this.
