Educate yourself before voting
We are now in voting season (early voting ends July 28; Election Day is Aug. 2). We need to keep several things in mind before casting our valuable vote.
First, think and learn for yourself. Not from your friends, the blowhards in the media, your neighbors or the guys at the tavern. The most dangerous thing is an uneducated voter; you may be voting for the opposite of what you want.
Next, think of your priorities. Do you like how our country is heading? Are you happy with the people who represent you?
Before you actually press that lever, do you want term limits? Learn how many terms the candidates already have served.
