The Good Citizen

Today was a local election day in Utah. I like to do these things right, so I studied the candidates and chose the ones that want to do what I want them to do. That’s how it works in my brain.

Then I started reading the “fine print” so to speak. It wasn’t really fine print but honestly it was a bunch of stuff I admit, I’ve never paid much attention to.

First, it said my signature was required. I’m good with that. I have the same signature that I’ve had since high school, so there. It wanted other sundry stuff–last four numbers of my SS# and email and phone. No big deal.

There is a ton of funny business going on in the world these days with reguards to who can and who cannot vote and about being able to mail in your ballot…that sort of thing. For some odd reason there seems to be a lot of controversy about it all.

If you just read the document, it says straight up–be who you say you are. Don’t vote if you have no business voting. To do otherwise is a FELONY.

They use the word FELONY a LOT.

Seems pretty clear to me.

Behave yourself and do it the right way. If you don’t you really can’t whine if you get in trouble for it.

The rules are pretty dang clear.

It’s simple.

Sheesh.

Now go vote!!

  1. Consider it done! Also as a fun fact side note, every time I see the word citizen, I hear it in my head like they’d say it in The Scarlet Pimpernel. 😆 Way to be a good citizen.
