Voting

[dreamflower]

I made this on a whim!



I kind of imagine that if politics had never entered Hilary's life, she'd have been a lawyer who spent her work days doing pro bono work, and on Sundays she'd be active in the local UMC, and she'd probably be on a couple of the boards, and probably teach a Sunday School class. She'd probably bring fried chicken from the deli to the potlucks, because she wouldn't have much time for cooking. And even if she wasn't running for anything herself (and her husband wasn't--though it's harder for me to imagine Bill as non-political) she'd definitely be working hard to get the vote out locally, maybe even a poll worker or something.

So that's why I volunteered to do some calls for the Democratic candidate for County Clerk. And tomorrow I'm supposed to give a lady and her son a ride to the polls so that they can vote. It's not much, but it's a little way of showing my appreciation for all her hard work over the years.

This feels bang on. However viewed this is a life spent believing you have to put the effort in to make sure the system works. You are doing your bit and helping democracy and that's so wonderful. Hugs xxx

Thanks! I've never involved myself before as I did this year. I just knew I had to do my best to help this time.
