Americans Vote November 5th

Voting is an important part of the American way of life. Please vote Tuesday November 5th, or before (photo by Paul Konrad).

Voting is a right and a privilege in our United States of America, and voting is our only sure way of acting as a part of a vibrant democracy – nationally and locally. There are certainly many topics and personal interests that affect our voting choices, and as birders it’s important to keep in mind how our government shapes our public lands, including the National Wildlife Refuge System, our National Parks Service, and administers the Endangered Species Act, the Migratory Bird Act, and other important topics that can, and do, shape our future as a country, as families, and as individuals.

Enjoy and appreciate the process and the opportunity to vote. Many of us have already voted, but we all have until the polls close next Tuesday November 5th to vote and be counted as voting Americans. If you need any information about how or where to vote in this election, state by state, you can contact the non-partisan group Vote.org at Polling Place Locator - Vote.org
