Should I vote in the local election
I am having difficulty persuading my son to vote today in the local council elections.
I believe it is the duty of every eligible citizen in a democracy to cast their vote and have their input on the way we are governed, after all people died to preserve our right to free and fair elections. I even heard today a women telling her daughter that ‘she needs to vote because years ago some women chained themselves to railings in order to enjoy equal voting rights as their male counterparts’.
