Voting can be scary, especially when you don’t know what you could be voting for, but voting is the best way if you are passionate about changing the world. One vote can seem meaningless, but even one vote can make a huge impact.

The things happening worldwide are appalling, and many of the younger generations often post online to raise awareness. While raising awareness is excellent, you cannot stop there. Voting can create a considerable difference. Put your passion for posting to social media towards voting at the polls.

November 5, 2024, is General Election Day when you will get a chance to vote for the presidential election. It is a Presidential election year,, and although registration for the Presidential Preference Primary Election has passed, you still have time to register or change party affiliation for the Primary election! The deadline is July 22, 2024. Also, the registration deadline for the General Election is October 7, 2024. I recommend registering before it is too late if you still need to register.

Are you unsure if you are registered to vote? Go to VOTE411.org; it is a great website to check your vote registration and register to vote. You can also see what will be on your ballot. It is an excellent resource for all your election needs, local and general.

Another great resource to check out if you have any confusion is the League of Women Voters (LWV), a nonpartisan organization that teaches people about voting. The League wants everyone to know why voting is essential regardless of party affiliation. Going through a website like that is perfect if you are unsure about voting because you do not need to be affiliated with a specific party to understand their message. You can also check out the social media, such as their Facebook and Instagram pages.
