One wish among several for all Occupy representations: |
|
I hope all over 18 are registered to vote and have exercised their right and their choice to try to change things by voting absentee ballot already. Election Day is one week and one day away. Voting is admittedly a slow process towards change, but it's still a viable option that should be considered in conjunction with protest.

3. I assume those people vote at higher rates than their non activist |

age peers. I agree with the 'all over 18' part if applied to all over 18. Holding the demonstrators up as being less participatory than others seems shaky at best.
