I did my job today ....

did you?


It is estimated that only 10% of Missouri citizens in the KC area, and fewer than 20% of Kansas citizens in the KC area, will cast a vote today.

Do you think only 1 in 10 Missourians and 1 in 5 Kansans complain about their elected officials?

You don't have the right to complain if you didn't exercise your right to CHOOSE.

If you live in Johnson County, you can find your polling place here.

I have some pretty strong feelings about the candidates, which I won't voice here, but let me know if you want my opinion and I'll be happy to share.

I just came back from the poll. I was the youngest person voting by probably 30 years.
I know it's my civic duty ... I also know it's my family duty. Do you think they'd disown me for not voting? ;)

You're starting to sound like your parents! And that's a good thing. And yes, Bets, we'd THINK about disowning you. I know it wasn't easy for you to go to vote today, but it wasn't hard either. It's just something you do very seldom and that's why it's so important.
