Prompt: Voting Absentee?
Music: Justice – D.A.N.C.E.
And etc. Raindrops are falling (1)
I’m filling out my absentee ballot right this second and I realized that I really only have an opinion on a few of these topics…
No on Prop 8 There is no way I could have worded any argument against Prop 8 better than Earplitting just did, so I would like everybody to read what she has to say about it. I completely agree with her. I realized that I never gave same-sex marriage that much thought until last year, when I learned that one of my good friends here at school is gay, and now I can’t imagine denying her the right to be married, or any right for that matter.
No on Prop 4 (Notifying parents 48 hrs before an abortion) I’ve heard both arguments on this one, and this decision is a bit harder. I do agree that parents should know if their daughter is getting an abortion, however I more strongly think that girls who are afraid to tell their parents will be finding more dangerous and illegal ways to get an abortion.
Tell me what you think about these or other propositions/measures/etc otherwise I’m just voting for these two and president. My ballot will be sent out by tomorrow! how exciting.
