VOTING

1. The growth of the American electorate to it's present size and shape has come in five fairly distinct stages. The two trends described above elimination of voting restrictions and growing federal control over voting are woven through those stages.
2. Nearly every stae does prohibit transients, persons, livign in the State for only a short time, from gaining a legal residence there. THus, a traveling sales agent, a member of the armed services, or a college student usually cannot vote in a State where or she has only a temporary physical residence.
3.Gerrymandering is the practice of drawing electoral district lines (the boundaries of the geographic area from which a candidate is elected to a public office) in order to limit the voting strength of a particular group or party.
4.Another 5 to 6 million citizens were so ill or otherwise physically disabled that they simply could not vote in an election.
5. The study of American Electorate, a non partisan research organization that studies the causes of declining voters participation and looks for solutions. Voting is a religious act. Each citizen must come to believe that despite the thousands of elections that are not decided by one vote his or her vote does make a difference.
6. You vote weeks before the election. You can obtain a registration form.

Parties

The Boston Tea Party is not as cool as the Third Party.  The differences are the Boston Tea Party was in Boston.

Democratic and Republican Parties

Democrats have stood for the idea that wealth and status should not be an entitlement to rule.  Democrats stand for an abiding faith in the judgment of hardworking American families, and a commitment to helping the excluded, the disenfranchised and the poor strengthen our nation by earning themselves a piece of the American Dream. We remember that our country was sculpted by immigrants and slaves, their children and grandchildren. I really don't know what political party I'd be in.
