Where are you from, Mark?
High Point
Have you done canvassing before?
Yes, during the 2008 General Election
Why do you think people should vote?
People should vote because it’s a right, not a privilege. Our country has designed a system where we get to choose who are our leaders.
So, why do you think people choose not to vote?
Some people tend to see the government as a system rather than feeling a part of the process. Issues that affect our lives – especially for young people – like a bad economy, student loans, can impact how people view the political process. I want to help change the perception that our government is a separate system but rather our government is the outcome of the values we – as voters – want to be reflected in the decisions they make.
