It's that time we all dread during an election year.

You could be minding your own business and a biased advertisement, an overly opinionated person behind a screen, and the countless knocks on the door somehow seep into your daily life.

Some people are telling you to vote YES on Prop-Whatever and others tell you to vote NO while showing you a one-sided argument that tells you nothing about the other side.

And then there are the absolute nonsense online campaigns telling you to vote for 'So-And-So' because he's Republican or Democrat. Have we come this far in the political divide that we're not going to take a look at the issues or the values each one holds and research the candidate's plan?

It's times like this that make us roll our eyes and wait for the election to be over. I'm tired of the biased arguments just as much as you are, but I'm still voting in the Midterm Elections 2018 because it is my right as an American citizen. It's a simple as that.

Honestly, you don't get to complain if you don't vote because by not voting you forfeited your right to do so. You didn't want to have a voice in your vote so why do you want a voice on the matter afterward?

Make your voice matter when it counts. The election booth on November 6th can be where it starts, where America hears a hopefully well-informed citizen cast their vote because they can and they have no excuse.

You really have no excuse. We have mail-in ballots and polls everywhere. If you can't get a ride to a poll, both Uber and Lyft are giving FREE rides to the polls on Election Day.

All you need to do is be informed! Decide what policies and values are important and research both sides because there are at least two sides to every argument.

In California, both candidates may value making efforts to end homelessness, but which one has a plan that you can support?

In light of the Red For Ed campaign, both Arizona governor candidates value quality schools but which plan is actually going to make a difference?

The reason we're so tired of election campaigns is that none of it helps us get informed, but that cannot stop us. We have to take responsibility for our vote so we need to be the ones to make the effort of getting informed.

Who we are putting in Congress, the Senate, etc. that all matters.

Don't just go to a candidate's campaign site. You need to research the issues and vote policy over party because you're an informed individual that don't need no party bias to tell you anything.

While we can hardly wait until we can watch YouTube, Hulu, and cable without the annoying Ads, don't skip out on election day just because the very thought of it makes you roll your eyes. Take your time becoming informed, call up Uber or Lyft, and let your voice be heard in your vote.
