Remember to VOTE

The day is finally upon us, November 4, 2008. Take pride in being an American, a South Carolinian, a Charlestonian, or a(n) [insert city/state here]ian, and exercise your right to VOTE! Not knowing where to VOTE is no excuse… find your voting location here.

Remember, legislation drafted by public officials can make up one part of an equation which could inevitably influence the fate of our waterways. If you haven’t already done so, educate yourself on where each candidate stands with respect to water issues (quality, efficiency, usage, etc.). Waterkeeper Alliance has just published its Blueprint for Clean Water, a series of recommendations offering remedies to past policy decisions and proposing a new way for the federal government to strengthen environmental protection in all areas relating to water.

Send us a pictures of you and your voting experience and we will make sure to put you on the website. Take pride in your right to VOTE and remember, your voice does matter.
