I can’t speak on behalf of anyone else, but am I alone here in feeling somewhat frustrated with the start of this year’s election campaigns? We still have a whole year ahead of us, but at this point right now, everything seems kind of like a joke, does it not? I’m not going to divulge on the details of my political views, but as someone who will be voting and who will be affected by next year’s election, there is a lot at stake here for everyone. It is draining to stay up-to-date on all of the coverage that is going on currently especially because this is a marathon, but I’ve realized the importance of staying informed. The first time I voted, I was 18 and I hate to admit it, but I was not as informed on the issues as I should’ve been. This time around, I don’t want to make that same mistake.
I know we all have mixed views on MTV, but I think the network actually does a pretty great job on the coverage. This year, Andrew Jenks is kicking off the election coverage and it is definitely worth watching. Check out the preview here and the full version on Tuesday, December 20th at 4:54 PM. (Tomorrow!)
