Called into this program yesterday, that she is done voting. She is not going to vote anymore. Nothing changes no matter what parties elected so she needs no point voting. What would you say if you had a chance to talk to her . We talk about these issues across the country. That is what we hear from some people. That is clearly not the right solution.
