Bloggers Meet and Greet November 2018

Hi everyone. Did you know that there was a time in history when some could not vote even if they wanted to? Are you taking advantage of your voting rights?

Vote

Remember to Vote

If you are not with Google feel free to post this bloggers meet and greet and comment with your favorite post at your favorite media site.

A. Women

There was a time in history when women were not allowed to vote. According to History.com there was a time a married woman could not vote, but also could not own property and had no legal claim to any money she might earn. Can you imagine? They further add that the 19^th Amendment to the U.S. Constitution which was ratified on August 18, 1920 granted women the right to vote. Now today women are CEO’s and owner’s of their own companies. So women definitely should exercise their right to vote.

B. Blacks

Did you know that there was a time blacks were not allowed to vote? According to history.com even though the 15^th Amendment was ratified in 1870, discriminatory practices still prevailed to prevent African Americans from voting. Blacks were told they had the wrong date to vote, applications were filled out incorrectly, and some were even given a literacy test. In 1965 President Lyndon B. Johnson signed the voting rights bill banning the use of literacy tests. The right to vote should be exercised by all that are of voting age. Also, note that according to the Amendment that gives Blacks the right to vote, it would be revisited in 25 years. In other words, Congress would need to vote at that time again to determine if Blacks are allowed to vote, such a heavy weight for Blacks to endure.

Note:

I sincerely feel for the dreamers, since President Trump announced he could use executive order to change the birthrights of immigrant children that were born in America.  

C. Absentee Ballots

Now there is not excuse for not voting. Absentee Ballots are allow for those that are not able to make it to the polls to vote. Note that there are many taking advantage of the absentee ballots.  If you are going to be out of town at that time, an absentee ballot would be perfect for you.
