"The right of voting for representatives is the primary right by which other rights are protected."

Different Levels of Voting and Elections
Our local city and county issues are decided by the city council, the mayor, the county board and YOU. Your vote both for these representatives and for issues on the agenda can really make an impact on our day-to-day lives.
City Council Meetings
How does the local legislation work?
Like with the Local elections and issues, your vote makes a difference for the entire state. If we don't keep our representatives and public officials accountable, no one will.
The President and his cabinet still need to answer to the people. Your vote and involvement on the local level can even help America on the Federal level. Things trickle down and up.
