When you step into the voting booth on Tuesday, you have a unique opportunity to personally help shape our national policy and the direction of this country. Please try to never make the mistake of voting a straight party ticket regardless of who is running under party banners.

The powers that be of both major parties are turning up the pressure for you not to think for yourself and blindly follow their urging and vote straight Democratic or Republican. Don't fall for it!

There are candidates of both parties who do not deserve to be elected. Know whom you vote for, regardless of which party they belong to.

The old adage "Bad leaders are elected by good people who don't vote" is timeless and holds true today.

Does anybody know anything about the non-Presidential candidates where they are? Is that presidential with a small p?

My parents theorise the voter turnout would be higher if you didn't have so many things to vote for on your ballots. It's so much easier in the UK - just a cross by who you want to represent your area. That's it. Easy as pie.
