YESEES AND NOEES

Today, Tuesday, March 5 is Super Tuesday in the US with primaries or caucuses being held in 15 states and 1 territory. Many will be "open" primaries allowing those with any party (D or R or I) affiliation to vote. Senate, House and Governorship seats are on some state ballots. Being a very politically-oriented individual, albeit a pet blogger, in general Zoolatry does not focus beyond our pets ~ except when believing there is an important and overwhelming need to do so.
It is often said, "this election is the most important ever". This one is.
There are far too many issues to state here, and it is not my desire to suggest to any reader how to vote. But having the privilege to vote is not universal and does not exist worldwide, and has now been threatened here in our own country. From March 12 through September 10, primaries will continue in many states, even after the National Conventions are held in July and August and it remains critical to vote in your state primaries for down-ballot issues and individual office holders for your towns, cities, and state positions.
VOTE.
Use your freedom to CHOOSE.
Use your freedom to say YES or NO.
If you do not, in the future you may not have these freedoms.
