I am only one vote,but every vote counts,I was raised also in a home where religion,money and politics were private affairs.My vote,however,will stay within my family only as we all respect each others freedom of choice but we have all felt the need to look at and discuss this referendum from every possible angle.....thank goodness for the relative sanity of my stitching!!!!!The Knitting Cross Stitcherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17190571521286637417noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5007999093281954902.post-75239593907565647742016-05-03T23:24:00.014-04:002016-05-03T23:24:00.014-04:00I want to know what brand of hot dogs you have kno...I want to know what brand of hot dogs you have knocking around in your mind.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16088165392710253508noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5007999093281954902.post-22752759802770380642016-05-03T21:30:01.275-04:002016-05-03T21:30:01.275-04:00I'm grateful to live in a country with a Const...I'm grateful to live in a country with a Constitution that allows us to vote and to do it on a private ballot. There are 3 things we citizens do to give back for the freedoms we have: pay taxes, serve jury duty and vote. Voting is the easiest. No one needs to know how much we pay in taxes, either.

You are also right that your political views don't have to be shared with anyone unless you choose to. No one should think any less of us if we are silent!Ginnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12508033948122840025noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5007999093281954902.post-90757695541174863622016-05-03T20:27:38.632-04:002016-05-03T20:27:38.632-04:00I agree with keeping our vote private.

Sometimes I do, sometimes I don't. But I always follow the advice I received before the first ballot I ever cast: Vote for the candidate you want to win, without regard to the polls or anything else. If you do that, you'll never regret your vote. And over the past 40 years I've found that to be true!Annhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09018845650905472927noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5007999093281954902.post-15193104790430699482016-05-03T16:14:01.651-04:002016-05-03T16:14:01.651-04:00I'm right with you on it's nobody's bu...I'm right with you on it's nobody's business but my own who I vote for.
