Why Vote?

"My vote doesn't count anyway." The most common excuse for not participating in elections of any kind. The AECT elections are live right now. Anyone who cares about the future direction of the parent organization of this website, this blog, publications, the convention, or any other function of the organization will vote.

A couple of days ago I participated in the Nevada caucus. A first for this state, the caucus was chaotic, confusing, and invigorating. AECT's election is much easier to navigate! I can't imagine why every AECT member doesn't vote! Help me out here -- tell me why the answer to feeling powerless is to refuse to accept power that is given.

Don't you care?
