Letter: Proof some of us have no reason to vote in Utah

(Francisco Kjolseth | The Salt Lake Tribune) Tiffany Malo, Pam Harrison and John Armstrong, from left, join over 300 demonstrators as they fill the Capitol rotunda on Monday, Jan, 28, 2019, on the first day of the Legislative session to rally in support of protecting Proposition 3, the Medicaid Expansion law recently passed by voters.

It is an extremely sad day in Utah. The Utah State Senate, the Legislature, and Governor, have all joined hands in an effort to exercise their combined power in order to save the citizens of Utah from themselves.

Not only have our collective State leaders effectively beat back the onslaught of Proposition 2 and 3, it has also effectively destroyed the morale of its citizens by clearly showing them the futility of any future propositions.

For those of you who feel that there is no reason to vote, that you have no voice in the way government is run, and that your vote doesn’t count for anything, you are right, at least in Utah.
