I'm sorry I haven't posted anything in a while. I'm generally posting to my politics blog so this one gets shorted.
One of the easiest ways to get involved is to vote. I know it sounds trite but voting is a simple, easy way of involving yourself in the political process.
If you are not registered to vote, please do so today. It is truly a gift to be able to pick who will represent us. And no, in a presidential election our individual vote does not actually choose the president. Our electoral college means that a candidate won't concentrate on major population centers; instead he or she travels the country meeting everyday people because that candidate knows that each vote can matter.
Most motor vehicle locations in many states can handle your registration for you and the registrar's office is most often located in the same building as other county or city offices.
Please vote, don't take the right for granted.
