But some areas don’t have close voting areas and thus need to go as far as 10 miles away from their homes to go out to vote.

Stories like this make me really happy and optimistic about the student/youth participation in the voting process. It’s unfortunate that disenfranchisement still occurs in some areas of the US and that it is so blatant.
