Voting
is a very important civil action. Having the opportunity to vote is an
important and full of responsibility experience, not to mention that having the
right to vote is a privilege. I think that nowadays most people don’t see it
that way. For most people it is a real pain in the neck. It is incredible how
easy we forget that in Chile, only a few decades ago that right was
denied.
Those
who were born in democracy will never appreciate the importance of voting as
much as us who grew up in dictatorship, even if you don’t like the candidates,
even if you think politicians are not the most reliable people in this world. I
refuse to believe those who say that my vote won’t make the difference………I can
vote and so, as a citizen, I must have a responsible attitude. It is my duty,
otherwise, how am I going to complain and demand for changes?????.....
Now it is time for you to express your opinion. Say:
-Are you going to vote in the next elections? Yes / No Why?
-What is
your opinion on electoral campaigns? Explain.
-What
qualities should a person have to run for a public position?
-Have
you ever considered to get involved in politics? Yes/No Why?
-Make a
constructive criticism to the electoral campaigns in your district?
