Guest: Tracy Moavero
American history has seen a difficult struggle while deciding who is allowed the right to vote. Now that there are very few limitations placed on who may do so, only about 50% of those eligible actually vote. Tracy Moavero explains why some people don’t vote and also helps us understand not only the importance of participating in our democratic process, but also how to do it.
