Students living on campus voted at the Student Union Building Nov. 5. Many reported experiencing no problems.
Freshman Siman Loethen said this was her first time voting and she had an easy time voting at the SUB.
“There were a couple of amendments I wish I had looked into a little bit more before voting,” Loethen said. “But overall I think that I came in a good amount of prepared at least the ones that I was really passionate about.”
Freshman Taylor Popp voted for the first time as well. Popp said voting was a little stressful but overall, it was an easy experience since he did research before hand.
Popp said he hopes to see more young people vote.
“I don’t think there is ever a reason you shouldn’t vote. I think that it doesn’t really matter what your opinion is, that there is a reason that people fought for the ability to vote and that everyone can now vote because of that,” Popp said.
Sophomore Logan Honerkamp said he is not super into politics, but he felt good after voting on the issues he felt passionate about.
“I think there is a lot of us that feel very strongly about certain things and I feel with the amount of us that are voting I feel like our voices are going to be heard and at least I hope that what is on the ballot and what our generation votes for will actually be passed,” Honerkamp said.
