Very cool.
I cannot vote so I do everything possible to influence my parents to my choices. As a result they never tell me who they will/have vote/d for.

i must confess that despite having reached the age where one can vote several years ago, i have not exactly asserted this right. ok, heck, i've never voted before!

tsk. Voting is a right, but should also be considered a civic duty. (And it's the only way you have some say in the way the country is run)

We hear lots about this, as we have very poor voter turnout, particularly for local things, like elections and budget referendums.

its the same here, we only get about 30% turnout for local and district elections. i voted this time, cos its kind of exciting, having never done it before. will always vote for general elections, but once i go to uni, i dont know how easy it will be to vote locally.

very good question. do you have a civics/social studies teacher you could ask before you leave about how to do that? they are usually the most interested and could give you some pointers there.
