Since voters typically cannot become political experts, is their voice really valid?

At the end of the day, we use our vote to try to vote for the person who will do the best job for our country.

Key word: Try. Our voices do matter, and the amount of them that have spoken for, or against, candidates has spoken volumes about what we want for our country.

Fun times.

I would sau no because out votes dont really control anything .

Yes, their voice remains valid — and essential. Here’s why in simple terms:

Voters don’t need to be experts to have legitimate concerns or values. Democracy is not a test of expertise; it’s a system where lived experience, common sense, and collective well-being guide decisions. People may not know every policy detail, but they often understand their own needs, their community’s challenges, and whether leaders are serving them fairly.

Additionally, voting is not just an individual act — it’s a collective expression. Societies function by combining diverse perspectives, not just technical knowledge. When systems are transparent and information is accessible, ordinary people can make sound judgments about trust, character, and direction — which are at the heart of governance.

That said, a healthy democracy also depends on informed debate, reliable media, and leaders who communicate clearly — so voters can engage meaningfully, not blindly.

I wouldn’t know, I don’t vote!!
