Voting Day

​Today I could not go to my local voting place because I was called into work, so on my way to work I took a picture of a voting building located downtown. On the job, I interviewed my co-worker Saesha. Who is 18 years of age and was voting for the first time.


Question: What motivated you to come out and vote?
Answer: I just felt like for once my voice was heard, I did it because I knew that my other peers would as well.

Question: What would you like to see changed in our political system?
Answer: Well ever since I was younger, I've noticed a lot of bickering and back and forth among candidates. I would like to see more information about that we stand for as a government and what out views are instead of I guess attacking the other runner.

Question: Do you know why we vote on Tuesday?
Answer: Ummm, naw.

Question: Where have you encountered the highest amount of ad campaigning?
Answer: I would have to say T.V and around my home. I live in a suburban setting so people tend to express their vote on their front laws on in their windows. 

Question: What was the most memorable campaign ad that you have encountered?
Answer: I'm not sure who the candidate that was running, but all I remember was constant bashing of the other runner. In the entire 30 second ad they NEVER, I mean like talked about their political views. Just what the other person was doing, which was pointless.

Question: What impact do you feel your vote will have on the election?
Answer: I mean every vote counts because it's apart of a large group of other votes. I can't say if my vote will make or break it but I feel like it counts because I encouraged my friends to want to do it to. So more people were apart of it because of me.
