I feel it's my responsibility as a citizen to vote. I get lots of rights here in the US and in exchange I have some responsibilities to fulfill - - voting (and with that, being politically aware/educated enough to cast an educated vote) being one of them.

As for local stuff that pops up between, not always. I do if I know about it, but I don't watch the news or read the paper so honestly sometimes I have no idea an election is happening.

I vote in primaries and general elections. IMO, if you're eligible to vote but don't exercise your right to cast a ballot, you have no right to complain when you don't like something about the government. sslm on "Do you vote?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-vote-1#post-1165889 Tue, 22 Oct 2013 11:13:10 +0000 sslm 1165889@https://boards.hellobee.com/ I always vote at every level :)
