We’ve heard it before. “You have a civic duty to vote.” “Do you know how many people fought and died for your right to vote?” “Get to polls this November.” Google does it’s part. Google wants you to vote. They will help you.
Due to Google’s great wealth of knowledge, they will launch tools to give you more information. This information will equip you for Election Day. Because Google wants you to have no excuses. First of all, you ask Google about a ballot. Google tells you who is on the national, state and local ballot. However, Google acknowledges each state has different rules for voting. Since there are so many different rules, Google breaks it down for every state.
For example, you live in Massachusetts. Google shows you how to vote in Massachusetts. Also, Google encourages you to double check. Since there is a lot controversy about ID, Google tells you which ID to bring to the polls. Furthermore, you get deadlines, from registration deadlines to polling hours. In addition, if you’re voting by mail, Google walks you through that process. One can even check absentee ballots. Finally, Google tells you where your polling station is. And it shows you how to get there.
Another thing: Google has these instructions in English and Spanish. There you have it. There really is no excuse. I applaud Google for educating voters like this. All the quotes in the first paragraphs are true. It is your civic duty. People fought and ?died for your rights. We need to get to the polls in November. Look, I will not tell you who to vote for. I’m not too crazy about either presidential candidate. That’s all I will say about that. But even if yours don’t win, at least you can say, “I did my part. I voted.” Can Google help you to the polls?
