You feel like your voice in being heard.

About a month before the general elections, I filled up my registration form so I may be able to exercise my franchise. At first I did not have the motivation to registered to vote. However, after a while, I realized that it is a privilege to be able to vote in the United States because not all people can.

You have the confidence to participate when people are sharing their views on which candidate they want.

Registration to vote if you are eligible to do so and actually voting gives one the confidence to share their political views. Being able to defend the side you are supporting shows that you know what you are doing.

Voting made me more interested in issues concerning my country of residence.

Before I voted, I made sure I watched the presidential debates and the campaigns that were showed to help me expand my knowledge on who to vote for.

I looked for the person that would help me and America as a whole.

I did not just vote for voting sake. I made sure that the person I was going to vote for had good intentions for me as a students and for the wellbeing of the country.
