๐บ๐ฒ Primary elections are coming up soon, you need to be registered by May 1 ๐บ๐ฒ
Are you tired of voting for the "lesser of two evils"? Wish you had a say in who you got to vote for? Well you can, if you vote in the primaries! Primary elections determine who will be on the ballot in the general election. If you want to vote in the primaries for a party, you must select that party on your voter registration. You can update your voter registration online.
The next statewide primary election is May 21, which means you need to register and select a party by May 1 to participate in a closed primary. The sooner you register, the better off you will be.
What positions can you vote on in primaries?
President
Governor
Attorney General
Secretary of State
Treasurer
State Legislators
Federal legislators (house and senate)
Voting is one important way you can be politically active. There are many other ways as well. I hope you explore all your options and engage politically. Our political process has flaws, it's easy to look at things and think they are hopeless. But remember that apathy has never worked as a strategy to change anything for the better and probably never will :).
We now have a political system that is rigged for power and to maintain power at the health and expense of the people by believing that there are only two options republican and democrat. The only way out is voting for candidates who favor changing the voting system.
