It's heartbreaking that so many hundreds of millions of people around the world are desperate for the right to vote, but here in America people stay home on election day.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
As Democrats, we believe in giving every eligible citizen the opportunity to vote - whether it's early because they can't take off work on Election Day or absentee because they might have plans to be out of town.
We have just been working hard to have people to come out to vote and to make sure people understand how important the election is.
I love election day, and I love to vote.
America feels like home as much as it does here. Although it's a strange situation as I feel almost like I'm in no-man's land some of the time, because although I'm a resident, I still can't vote so I don't really have a say in what goes on where I live.
Too many people struggled, suffered, and died to make it possible for every American to exercise their right to vote.
It's very important to vote. People died for this right.
The right to vote gives every eligible American a voice in our electoral politics. There's too much at stake to stay silent as this right is eroded.
I love voting day. I love the sight of my fellow citizens lining up to make their voices heard.
Election Day outside of big cities is different. For one thing, there are so few people in my town that each individual vote really does matter, and several local races have been decided by as many votes as you can count on one hand.
It is a paradox that far too few Americans participate in the wonderful ritual of democracy that we call Election Day.
