VOTE!

The State of Utah has been running an ad campaign trying to get everyone to get out and vote.
vote.utah.gov

I don't care if you are registered (R) or (D) or (Whatever), just get out and vote. I can't tollerate people that don't vote and then complain about what our elected officials are doing. I make an effort to vote in every election I'm allowed to vote in. Utah Republicans don't allow anyone other than registered Republican to vote in primaries, so I typically only get to vote in the general elections.

What's awesome about the Utah web site is that I can see what's on my ballot BEFORE I go to the polls. I can then do my research on the candidates and issues presented to me. There isn't much better than an educated voter. The website also tells me when and where to vote as well as my affiliation. If you haven't guessed, I'm registered as "unaffiliated". :D

I plan on knowing how I'm going to vote long before election day arrives. Then voting will only take a moment. A couple of years ago I had a friend get me hooked on Absentee voting, and I didn't get renewed to vote absentee, but that isn't going to stop me from doing my civic duty!

So, if you don't vote you can't say anything about what happens over the next two years. If you do, then you have every right to complain.
