Rock the Vote!

After years of anticipation Nik reached another Mile Stone today. Since the 2000 presidential election Nik has been chomping at the bit to be a part of the electoral process. Now 18, he was able to register and vote for the first time today. While a minor polling day in Minnesota with only school board and 2 ballot measures on the ballot he was still very excited to take his first major step as an adult and let his voice be heard. He is now waiting with much anticipation for the presidential primary in February. There are far too many people in their 20's and 30's that do not exercise their right and obligation to vote, so I'm very proud of Nik for bucking this tread.
