To vote or not to vote


Hello everyone!
Today I’m talking about to vote or not to vote this Sunday on the elections.

I think that the municipality elections are very important, more than presidential elections because the mayor’s power is nearer from the people and their daily life, and choose who will organize it, it’s essential, so much more in this country, when the politics is something that’s manipulated to obtain money and have good contacts to obtain positions of more power…today is very difficult to found politicians with a vocation and good intentions.

For all this, I think that the new system of vote is something complicated in Chile, because the people doesn’t have the civic culture, if the obligatory vote doesn’t exist, it’s possible that the people don’t vote, although in the past this person was registered voluntarily. Now, the mystery is if the teenagers + 18 and the other people that weren’t registered will go to vote this Sunday.

For that is important this vote; for the city council’s people, and that the people care the important decisions, I will vote because I feel that it’s a correct form to say the things that I think about the place that where i live, and that I feel with the actual mayor (that in my case, he support his town councilor for mayor), and, in conclusion, vote for something more than the politics, vote because we are citizens and we must chose one person to do the things for us…doing it well, and respecting the majority.
