The
democratic process in which the population elects
government officials and determine the social,
economic and cultural path a nation will take.
Voting is the one way the average citizen can
express their feelings about the way politicians are
running their country and economy. It should never
be taken lightly nor should it be ignored or
marginalized. We have been
asked why the first week in November is the period
for Federal election. The answer is simple the early
republic was based on agriculture and that is the
period of time after the fall crop has been
harvested and the fields lay fallow. The farmers
thus had the time and ability to vote.
