The debates are done; the presidential, state, and community candidates have made their stances; and now election day is only days away. By no, you know you want to vote, but you probably still have questions. Who to vote for? How? What else is there to vote for besides the president? You're not alone with these questions, and with voting so close, it's time to have them answered.

First, maybe most important to you, is who should you vote for for the president? Now, I can't tell you who to use your vote on. I won't. But what I can, and will tell you is how to decide. By now, however, you probably already have decided who you are going to vote for for president. But if you're one of the few people that haven't decided, or you would just like a refresher on Donald, Hillary, or third party policies, then all it takes is a quick browser search. Not sure what to look for? A good place to start is campaign websites (Donald's: donaldjtrump.com; Hillary's: hillaryclinton.com; Johnson's: johnsonweld.com; Stein's: jill2016.com), or some credible political news sources, like Politico.

It's also good to remember that the president isn't the only thing you are going to be voting for this election year. In fact, I'll even be bold enough to say the presidential election hardly even matters compared to your local government. It's, obviously, local, and that is what is going to effect you a lot more directly. You state government, your city council, and any referendums will effect you more than who is president will. So it's important to make sure you do plenty of research about your local issues and candidates, so you can give your vote to the right thing.

To look up state, county, and city candidates and issues goes the same way the president stuff does. All it takes is a quick search using your search engine of choice. You can look up and use, also, any website your state, county, or city might have. For state candidates, you can use the Senate website (senate.gov) or anything similar. Big issues you'll be able to find on websites, and in your local newspaper.

Now that you know who and what you're going to vote for, the question is, how? Simple. Find out where you need to go to vote, and when it's time, go. Make sure to bring your state ID, and whatever else you think you might need, or the state might require. Follow the instructions you are given at your location, then get voting.

There are some things not to do as well. Don't take any pictures of the people there, or the ballot you are voting on. If for some weird reason you do, DO NOT post those pictures anywhere on the web. Doing so will make your ballot invalid, and can even get you a fine and land you in jail. Don't do a write in either. If the person isn't a candidate for president, it won't be counted. So, basically throwing away your vote. And don't go in uninformed. There's lot's of news and websites out there giving information about the election, so go find them.

There you have it. The choices might be, but voting itself isn't difficult. Just very, very (very very very ) important. So, when election day comes around, make sure you go out there and make your vote and voice heard.
