Since that's where your immediate community is affected? If you do, why? And if you don't, why not?
Isn't voting for your local school board and local judge just as important as your senator or the president?

Every one. Local government has more affect on a family than state or national. Besides these folks we elect just may well be standing next to us at the grocery store, waiting to pay for their food. They need to answer to their constituents. They typically cannot hide behind body guards, or in limos.

Yes I always vote! I vote in local elections because whomever is elected for town board or judge immediately affects my job at the local police department.

I do not because I havent found the time to register yet and I don't know how to. I do think that voting for my local school board is important as is voting for other things as well.

I vote in every election including the primaries. The local elections actually have a bigger effect on your individual life than any national election. That is where all the rules for local ordinances and property, sales taxes are established.

I vote in every election. Local eletions are MORE important in my opinion. Who is in office locally affects your life more directly. God Bless!

Yes, of course. Similar to what you asked, that is where the immediate community is affected.

Election is election and no matter who you vote for. It is a social and responsibility for me and my family so, my family never misses any. I make sure my family elect the right person for his or her job. Remember we the masses has to pay for the elite and only the right representatives will save us.
