My 17-year-old sister volunteered to help people who are illiterate or no longer able to read vote in the election. While she got a great look at what its like to vote and how to do it, she also got to see who everyone voted for.

 

A die-hard republican, my sister is involved in the ROTC, and naval science program at her school, and made me wonder if she tried to have a last minute effect on how people voted.

 

These people were either elderly or unable to physically read the ballot, or they had never learned to read at all. In the realization that this program even existed, I could see how there is a huge gap of people who are able to use modern technology and those who cannot.

 

With our free national public school and our first world country we still had enough people even in my small hometown county to keep my sister busy for eight hours at the poles on election day, assisting people to help decide the next president she has a better understanding of those who are in need in her community.

 

You know that these people are unable to type, use computers and understand some modern technology just because of these factors. I wonder where their votes counted the most.
