Reply to comment by mooscaretaker in Young voters are so important by mooscaretaker

It's also hard to even get on a ballot.

I tried running for Cranston council in July and couldn't get enough signatures to be nominated.

Most folks wouldn't open the door for me because they thought I was selling solar panels.

Young or old; it's tough to break into their club.

I'm going to try again in 2024, this time I'll take advantage of the voter demographics spreadsheets they give out.

Try again. In the meantime follow the data at RI Secretary of States website. Talk to your local town clerk in charge of voting. https://vote.sos.ri.gov/ You need to find out what the issues are locally and attend local meetings. It's so important

I read the council minutes occasionally.

But I'll try to attend physically.
