Election
day is not traditionally a holiday where gifts are exchanged. The greatest
gift you can give on this holiday is to your country, state, county, city
or town by voting. If you have children give them the gift of
knowledge by taking them to the voting booths and explaining how important
it is to vote each year (even in the years a President is not on the
ballot). |
