I think is very important to vote. You don’t need to be a political person. I believe that freedom is the most important right to use, and the election of government is the best way to use it. I will vote for the first time and I’m very happy and excited to express my opinion in these elections. This is an opportunity that we must not lose in any way. People in other countries would like to have the freedoms, rights and wonderful opportunities we enjoy and we must defend.
