I found speaking with Judge Stocklas to be very interesting. It was cool to talk to someone who has been elected to positions in the past and has a different way of looking at it. As did most of the people we talked to, the economy was a very important issue in determining who he voted for this election. He also passionately stressed the need for everyone to express their opinions by voting, which I agree with.  This is the way we participate in how our country functions and we should take advantage of that.
