Finally, I voted!

So, I have one suggestion to the "The System". There should be a law to allow residents from other countries, that join the military, to automatically receive their citizenship before they deploy for a conflict/war. That was not the case for yours truly. I waited too long for the approval to obtain my citizenship. In the end, with the help of a Congressman, a few military leaders and a community- I got it! The lovely Ms. Erica Castillo got the wheels turning to do the report from a local news affiliate (see blog log).

I had a good experience voting! I took my son Angel with me and educated him a bit on the democratic process, my struggles to get to the booth and the positive results results of some of our choices.

So I am happy that finally, I voted!
