Question of the Issue

Maddie Forshee

Question: Do you think it’s important to vote in local elections? 

“Yes, when you vote for local authority, you are more aware of what’s going on in your town and with that, you have a chance to have laws or rules that are more in your favor to be approved.” 

Andrew Carter, senior, business major, Fenton, Michigan

“Yeah, just to know the rights. Even if you don’t know how it’s effecting you, it’s still effecting you.” 

Breanna Edwards, senior, exercise science major, Detroit, Michigan

“Yes, it’s important to share your opinion so it makes you more part of the community.” 

Hailey Kilbarger, sophomore, advertising major, Ortonville, Michigan

“Yes, I feel like it’s our civic duty and our right as Americans.”
