As we approach the Presidential election many new voters question themselves on if they are prepared to vote and make a decision that could change the lives of many. We are in a time in our country where we need someone who can lead us to safety throughout this pandemic and guide us into a more normal lifestyle. If given the chance, you should vote early, online, or in person, on a leader that you believe will protect you and your loved ones throughout any situation that is thrown at that government official. It is important to understand when you vote for a leader of our government that you are voting for a nominee in a manner that you feel is safer for you. Do not vote based on other people’s opinions or beliefs because they have the right to vote and speak out and address these things. Do not let them take away your voice.

In this upcoming election, you will be voting on the President of the United States of America. Someone who will lead and govern the people in a safe, careful, and respectful way. The candidates running for the position are President Donald Trump (Republican), Joe Biden (Democrat), and Jo Jorgensen (Third Party). It is important to think about and understand the person you are wanting to vote for. Vote for someone you support the most and believe will do the best to run our country. Your opinion could be the opinion that changes the world.

When you feel strong enough to stand up, state your opinion, and vote you will be guiding this country to a safer and better place. There are many different ways you can register to vote; such as going to Vote.gov or printing and filling out a voter registration form, then sending it out through the mail. There are many rules and guidelines you need to follow in order to get registered to vote. You must be at least age 18, a citizen of the United States of America, have your social security number, and able to give a valid address that you plan to vote with.

The winner of a given election will run the office for a great period of time and it is your responsibility to make sure that whoever gets elected will handle many different and difficult situations to the best of their abilities. The outcome of their actions will affect everyone. It is your job to make sure that these actions do not come upon sexism, racism, or any other type of discrimination. It is our 14th Amendment right that grants everyone (no matter race, gender, income, or ethnicity)  the right to vote.
