Make a Difference with YOUR Vote
Imagine for a second you’re back in November 2016, going back to school finally feels normal again, we’ve figured out our routines, and we’re beginning to plan for the rest of the school year; but, for many, nothing compares to the presidential election that’s about to occur. For high schoolers, this was the first election that we were able to follow and discuss with parents, teachers, and peers, and as most of us are aware, the election was a tough one to follow. Through email scandals, Access Hollywood Tapes, and incivility between candidates, we were there for all of it, and, yet for teenagers, we were unable to voice our opinions through the voting process. Whether you were ecstatic about the election of Donald Trump or wished that Hillary Clinton got the presidential seat, the result of that election acted as a wakeup call to the fact that elections have consequences. This time, however, the majority of teens will be able to vote in 2020, but sadly those who can vote… won’t.
