Election Day tomorrow!

If you are a citizen of the United States, tomorrow November 3, 2009 is your election day! No national elections to race to the polls for, but local elections are around and just as, if not more important.

Why vote in local elections?
  • Your vote really counts. With a smaller population putting in their say, your vote can really make a difference on who gets elected.
  • Local officials make decisions on important items such as snow removal, garbage pick-up, recycling and in short, how each city is managed.
  • Local officials are also responsible for public safety laws and enforcement of them.

I found a website that's awesome for helping us find where our local election offices are, who the current national and state elected officials are and more. Project Vote Smart

You can also visit Smart Voter - a site run by the League of Women Voters which will also help you find voting information.

Make Life Better and participate in your local elections tomorrow.
