I voted!

Election Day! I really enjoy voting. I like knowing that if I go and vote, then my voice can be heard. If I don't vote, then I really have no reason to complain about politics. Okay, some things I can complain about still, but at least I did my part.

Syracuse had some HOT topics up for voting. For starters, we had Referendum #1 about taking away the title of CEO from our mayor and making it more a council-leadership form of government. I dislike our mayor VERY much, so of course I voted in favor of this.
Second, we also had Referendum #2, changing our liquor law for sit-down restaurants. I want some good eating here in Syracuse, so I voted in favor.
Third, there was Option #1 (County) to raise our taxes to help with transportation or whatever. All I heard was that they wanted to raise my taxes again. I said no.
Fourth, there was Referendum #1 for the state to pass vouchers for private school. I voted in favor.
You know, with all these "referendums" and things being called the same thing, I would not be surprised if people voted for one of them thinking it was another and being totally confused.
But, I VOTED! Now bring on the Presidential Elections! I'm ready!
