Yesterday, I got a “Get out and Vote” email from a neighbor that simply astounded me.

The United States is 234 years old.

Women in the United States have had the right to vote for 90 of those years.

What!?  90 years!  That’s all?  How did I not know it’s only been 90 years?  The United States was in existence for 144 years before my grandmothers could vote?

So in honor of those who came before, I’m sending out a friendly reminder:  If you are an American, get out and vote today.
