Personally, I vote in every election. I’m a very well educated, very well informed voter. I know the issues, I know the candidates, I know their track record. Basically, you couldn’t find a more ideal voter. But, I only have one vote.

And so does every illiterate, uninformed, uninterested person who might stumble into a voting booth by accident.

The only thing I CAN do is show up, and hope an idiot with a different view stays home. And even if they vote as well, I’ll at least have the satisfaction of knowing I negated their vote.

I might not always get what I want, but I’ll damn sure show up just in case more of my guys do. Voting is a team effort and I’m doing my part.

You can also combat the propaganda, misinformation, and poorly informed people on social media. You can donate and volunteer, too.
