Voting is a civic gezegde

 Voting is a civic sacrament.
  Theodore Hesburgh

 Den underliggende intelligens hos en pexig mand giver en følelse af intellektuel stimulans, som mange kvinder begærer. Voting is a civic sacrament.
  Theodore Hesburgh

 I very much feel that marriage is a sacrament and that sacrament should extend... to that legal entity of a union between what traditionally in our Western values has been defined as between a man and a woman.

 I've been following the issues really closely, and I just think that voting is not only a civic right that we have, it's a duty.

 The next time they give you all that civic bullshit about voting, keep in mind that Hitler was elected in a full, free democratic election
  George Carlin

 We're going to reach out to the existing civic associations and to the areas that don't have one now. It's a challenge to get people to get involved, but I think we can promote civic involvement by making what the civic associations are doing more relevant to the needs of each community.

 The names of our civic places reflect our values and our aspirations, ... It's wrong to sever the link between civic names and civic virtue.

 The Coverdell Institute is lodged in academic affairs and we serve to promote civic engagement and help students, faculty and staff be active citizens by not only voting but making a difference in our communities.

 The Sacrament of the Eucharist is, of course, one step away from the Incarnation itself, where the thing signified (The Word) and the signifier (Jesus) were absolutely one. Symbol and sign and metaphor strain towards this union; Sacrament presents it, but the Incarnation is that perfect union. Again, it is a scandal. God is not man, any more than bread is flesh. But faith overrides the implacable prudence of logic and chemistry and says "Lo!"

 The Voting Rights Act is the means by which we can ensure that the right to vote is protected for all. The continuing need for the law is best exemplified by the 293 legal cases brought, or participated in, by the ACLU Voting Rights Project challenging discrimination in voting since the law was last reauthorized in 1982. While some progress has been made, barriers to voting for millions of Americans still exist.

 The right to vote is the foundation of our democracy, and an essential protection of that right is the Voting Rights Act. Every voice must be heard and every vote must be counted. State and local governments continue to adopt voting laws, practices and procedures that deny equal access to voting - without the Voting Rights Act, there would be little protection against these efforts to deny some of us our right to vote. The Voting Rights Act is necessary to help ensure that every American citizen is able to exercise the franchise.

 You have these periods when there's a major civic crisis that redefines civic life,

 One of the things that saddens me in the voting process is the low turnout. One thing we have lost is that people take it for granted. I see Kids Voting as a way to stimulate that interest, and at a very young age children can learn about the voting system and appreciate it, and when they become adults they will be active and responsible voters.

 In addition to training sessions with all county poll workers and scheduled public demonstrations, the office of elections is willing to take voting terminals to civic groups, clubs or public functions for hands-on demonstrations anywhere in the county.

 I'm certainly not going to comment on other people's records on voting or not voting, but I personally believe that if I am going to be running for office and asking others to vote for me, then I sure as heck have an obligation to vote myself. Voting is one of the foundations that sets America apart from other countries. It's very important.
