If your vote didn’t matter, they wouldn’t be trying so hard to stop it.

If your vote didn’t matter, they wouldn’t be trying so hard to stop it.
For @bibliophilicwitch's Sunday tomes & tea, I'm working my way through the epic tome of California's ballot measures. (I'm also using Voter's Edge to gain additional context on the measures as well as the groups supporting and opposing each measure.)
Although 29.4% of voters are in the 18-24 age bracket, only 58.5% of 18-24 year-olds, who are eligible to vote, are participating in the elections (File and Statistic Brain n.p.). Whereas the other age groups are all lower than 29% of the voters, but have a greater influence on the elections due to a higher voter turn-out. As young adults, popular media like Tumblr and Twitter tend to affect our voting. Don’t give in to the popular bias, and vote for those who support your beliefs. Build and form your beliefs after thoroughly looking at positives and negatives of each candidate.
