Platinum Contributing Member Skidooski Posted October 11, 2018 Platinum Contributing Member Share Posted October 11, 2018 Democrats are counting on Generation Z, many of whom recently gained the right to vote, to help turn Congress blue in the midterm elections. But 49 cents may be all it takes to keep these post-Millennials from exercising their civic duty. On Tuesday, a Fairfax County, Virginia official said they are noticing a disturbing trend: young people failing to mail in their absentee ballots because they don't know how to get a stamp. https://www.businessinsider.com/young-voters-dont-know-where-to-buy-stamps-for-absentee-ballots-2018-9?utm_source=facebook&utm_medium=referral&utm_content=topbar&utm_term=desktop&referrer=facebook Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no desire to see this country or any other country fail. The economic policies this administration have put in play is alarming and disasterous in the medium term. Everyone is on an economic drug high right now. I believe the quicker trump is out of office the less long term damage will be inflicted. Trump doesn’t scare me as much as what will arrive in the Oval Office following his departure when a quick economic decline occurs. The fear of what’s to come will actually come from the left. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
racer254 Posted October 11, 2018 Share Posted October 11, 2018 Don't you just love the excuses. People can't be forced to get an id to vote....now I suppose someone will say they are disenfranchising generation z by requiring them to buy a stamp. Maybe if they don't know how to buy a stamp that in all honesty they are not smart enough to be picking the people who will run the country....Ya think?
