Not:
-because I think my individual contribution will change the outcome.
-because my state is a battleground or swing state.
-because then I earn the right to complain (I get that anyway).
But:
-because I live in America, and going out this morning was one way that I can show gratitude for being an American.
-because it's a right that people have fought and died for. And voting shows my respect for their sacrifice.
-because it makes me feel a part of a greater community of citizens who know and care.
-because I care about my city and my state.
-because I know my legislator who's up for re-election.
- because I can.
