Dear Highland Park neighbors, As some of you know, I am a Judge of Elections here in Pittsburgh, and a journalist who has been writing about voting issues for the past 6 years. I recently turned a short op-ed I wrote about Why Vote? into an attractive large poster. I believe it includes some inspiring, fresh and very real thoughts about why people should vote in this election (and beyond). It is totally non-partisan. You can see and read it at my website: www.vision-and-values.com. This poster was created to help inspire people to vote. You might want to consider purchasing a copy for your church, school, library, office, a local women's shelter, any public place where it can reach potential voters. I also hope it would be of interest to anyone who cares about democracy to remind us all of the importance of the act of hope called voting. If you would like a poster, I am happy to have you pick it up here in HIghland Park if you contact me in advance. Thank you. janet jai
