"There Is Such Thing As a Wasted Vote Don't Make This A Wasted Election"


I was curious about what this poem was about, one because he is from Canada and I don't know what it is like to vote there, do they use electoral college or does each individual persons vote actually count? However, as the poem continues I realize it is about someone who is running for election again. I wish that Shane Koyczan would write a poem about everyone who runs for election, I feel as though he would bear it all and show what everyone really looked like and what it is they are all doing. I like that he states everything in plain terms so no matter who you are you could understand what the politician is doing wrong. At the same time it isn't just another boring commercial about making sure you cast your vote it's interesting it makes you want to listen instead of just turning the channel to get away from it. Apart of me feels as if the Canadian government is worse than ours, but at the same time it is just like Shane Koyczan says "they've been telling the media what to print" so somethings we don't know.
