 My name is Brandon. I voted because I think it's really important for everyone who has the right to vote to exercise it and have a voice in our government. I also think that issues such as sustainability and the environment are really important and that politicians should be more responsible to that kind of issue. I voted absentee already a few weeks ago. I think my biggest issue is with regards to primary education and also the budget. I voted for Proposition 2 because I do think our state does need a rainy day fund and I really want them to have a fund on the side when the economy is really good so they don't spend it all when they get all that revenue. I moved out here for school this fall and unfortunately I didn't get to register in time. I just changed my address. But I'm kind of feeling a little bad that I didn't get on top of it and stuff. I'm seeing a lot of measures going around like vote on D and I've been thinking about it a lot and I think it is important for us to be involved in it. And I feel like as I'm growing up now and living on my own I'm starting to realize that I have this autonomy and I can actually make this difference if I put myself out there. I won't be voting tomorrow just because I'm not politically inclined as much as I think I should be. I've just been catching up on schooling, my internship and other things. In the next election I'll actually be graduated so I'll actually be in the real world and I really would be more focused on more issues rather than just school and whatnot. But I think it's definitely something that I should have already been focusing on just because as a student there are all different policies and there are all different laws that are passed that do affect me. But it's just one of those things where I have to really focus on what matters. Well I'm registered here and I intend to vote because I think some of these laws, more or less the laws that actually have direct impact like R and things like that than I am with the politicians themselves. But I think there's something about those kind of legislation so that's why I intend to vote. I don't have that much enthusiasm about to vote. I've voted in previous years, I've been kind of disappointed with what I voted for. There's not that much that I see on the ballot that I really cared so strongly enough that I think that my vote won't matter that much so yeah I won't vote, that's why. I do intend to participate in elections, in future elections but I can't really participate in this one because I haven't registered because I turn 18 tomorrow. It's my right and my responsibility to decide what I want for my future.
