To vote or not to vote

To Vote Or Not To Vote?
To vote is recognize as a human right. This right is not fully enforced by millions of individuals around the world. Puerto Rico is not an exception. We have a large groupof people that doesn’t vote.

Voting is a formal expression of preference for a candidate or for a proposedresolution of an issue. Voting generally takes place in the context of a large-scale national or regional election; however, local and small-scale community elections can be just as critical to individualparticipation in government.

Voting is the only way we can make a change in our country. In elections we decide who will be making decisions for us, and we can also choose achange in some important issue in a special event. This right should never be taken for granted.

Other way can be making the process transparent from the beginning to end, so people trust in it more. All the wrong use of campaign money and allthe bad publicity surrounding an election has made people doubt of the importance of voting.
