In my book voting is vary important one reason is that if we do not vote a random person would be elected and we may not like the President or Vice President.

You should vote because if nobody voted then there would be no Student Council. If there was no Student Council there would not be fundraisers or spirit days. Voting for Student council is very important because if you don’t vote they won’t know what you want for your school.

Why I think voting is important because if you did not vote you not be able to give your own opinion about who you want to be for secretary. What I think what would happen if we did not vote than we would not be able to become what we want to be for a job. That’s why I think we should vote.

I think people should vote and voting is important because if you don’t you won’t be sharing your opinion about who should win for the election. What would happen if citizens did not vote? Well the answer is simple. The person who is running maybe very smart or may not be very smart. That is why I think people should vote.

1teens ages 18 to24 don't vote because they call themselves rebels and they think it is cool . When you get older you should vote because as Americans we were given that right 100's of years ago.2 I don’t think it would a fair to the candidates because no one would win and the country would go crazy and not know do about it.

Voting is important because if you don't vote the world would be a mess.

If a citizen didn’t vote then people that work for governor or for the house would just guess who would be the next governor and house

I think voting is important because it lets you choose who you think would be a good leader. If a citizen did not vote there would probably be a person in office who you do not want to be in office.

I think it is important vote because if we didn’t vote, people would not have an opinion about people or things. I think if citizen did not vote we would not have a President

I think that voting is important because a lot of people might not vote and then someone might not have as good of a chance of winning. If a citizen did not vote they would not get there opinion on who they would they wanted to win.

If there were no voting no one would be in office to control our counrty.

I think it is important to vote because when you make a vote you’re voting for a leader for something like maybe Student council. Also you are picking some one that you think will make the right choices for your school. In addition you want to make sure that the person is smart and also will do well as a secretary, Vice president, or a President or anything else someone could run for!

I think you should vote because you have an opinion and your opinion counts. It is important to vote for someone in office that believes the same as you do. If not our world could become disaster! Voting is important because it is the only way to have your voice heard. Well, that is just my opinion.

I think people should vote for student council because if nobody voted the school would not have new spirit days and fun fundraisers. The student body should vote on student council President, Vice President and Secretary. That is my opinion.

I think people should vote becuase if people didn't vote we would have a big problum in the U.S.A!The problem would be that the voices of the American people would not be heard. Therefoe,we should vote!

Alex said...

I think that voting is important because if we didn’t vote we would all fight over who is president and everything. I also think that if we didn’t vote it would be the same way.

I think voting is important because everyone can have different opinions. I also think you need to vote so the power of the Congress and the House of Representatives is balanced. I think that if no one voted than it would not be fair at all because people’s voices would not be heard.

“Why vote” you might repeat to yourself sitting in bed trying to get your PRETTY sleep in the middle of the night. Well, the thing that is important is if no one would vote than the world could end up being messed up in a bad way!!!We need to vote so we can be free and happy plus voting is cool to do. We are lucky to be allowed to vote freely. .

I think it is important for our school to vote for president, vice president, and secretary. If no one voted there would be no new sprit day and we would not have good fun raisers.

I think that it is important to vote because there would be no laws at school and people could do whatever they want at school. And it is fun to vote and run.
