Why do you think voting is important?

 

I feel that the act of voting is a way to show my opinion, my thoughts, what I hope for something that's important to me, since big things related to politics (president, mayor, etc.) or when we were in high school and we had to vote for our "best classmate", anyways, I have participated in this kind of democratic acts since I can remember, and since last year when I turned 18 I could finally vote in something political important for the country.

Voting is the most democratic method that exists to decide who will lead us, it's just being able to exercise my right that I have as a citizen and that is why it's very important that people vote and, even more important, that they vote with CONSCIENCE because it's a way that people can be heard, regardless of religious belief, political party, or social status, we ALL have the same right and all votes worth the same.

I think the best example is what happened in the plebiscite of October 25 in the last year, when we could vote if we wanted to change the constitution (which was created in 1980) of our country or keep it, this was an historic event and it has been the election with the highest participation since the voluntary vote was established. Demonstrating that the opinion of the people does matter and is capable of generating a change.

So this is why I believe that voting is one of the best things you can do to express what do you want and what do you think in order to change the things that are wrong and fix them. 💖
