Why Older Citizens are More Likely to Vote

Another reason that the elderly might vote is due to that they were alive in the 60's and saw how hard blacks had to fight to vote, they witnessed countless acts across seas in Europe and arosshe globe even at how people DIED to have the right to vote. It is a sacred thing that we have been given and even though it might seem like it's nothing to you and others, it is something that if we take for granted for too long, could be taken away. Yes there are millions of people in this country so 1 vote doesn't always have the affect we hoped it would, but if 50,000 people think that way and don't vote that's huge. Their voices go unheard. Yes our candidate are horrible but we need to pick one before they start picking them for us like they did before Alexander Jackson so urgedly . to the states upon entering office. The elderly vote because they understand this, not because they are stupid, bored, have nothing better to do, or have been brainwashed. Talk to your granny or grandpa, talk with your parents, find out why instead of assuming or suffering the net to get other peoples ideas of why they think it could be so.
