HSLDA--Your Vote Crucial in Preserving Homeschool Freedom
Dear Massachusetts HSLDA Members and Friends,
Election time is fast approaching. This November 4, many state and federal officials are up for re-election.
Who is elected can play a big part in determining what freedoms you will keep and what freedoms you will lose.
Exercising your right to vote is crucial. The voter guides described below will help you make informed decisions as you cast your vote.
Remember, statistics show approximately only 50% of eligible adults actually register to vote. In any given election only about 50% of registered voters vote (that is 25% of adults)! In primary elections this number can even be smaller.
For most general elections that means it only takes about 13% of adults to elect any given candidate. Your vote does count!
ACTION:

Thanks for caring!
Sincerely,
Michael P. Donnelly HSLDA Staff Attorney
