There are innumerable people, groups, activists and political parties urging everyone to vote tomorrow. I would like to be one of those people, but why should you listen to me? You shouldn't. But you should listen to Thomas Paine. Who's Thomas Paine you ask? Well that civics lesson starts here
"The right of voting for representatives is the primary right by which other rights are protected. To take away this right is to reduce a man to slavery, for slavery consists in being subject to the will of another, and he that has not a vote in the election of representatives is in this case."
-- Thomas Paine 1737-1809
