The 15th, 19th, 23rd, 24th, and 26th Amendments to the United States Constitution all involved providing EVERY citizen the opportunity to exercise their constitutional right to vote. Many fought and even died for this right so we cannot callously ignore the advances made by our forefathers. Change starts with each one of us and every vote does indeed matter. Research candidates and legislation and be informed about who you elect to represent your interests and the policies that will directly impact your life.
