It's election season and I'm passionate about 
the importance of voting. Stay tuned.

00:00:04,510 --> 00:00:09,000

00:00:09,010 --> 00:00:12,600
Hello everyone! Bret Champion here with your 
weekly update.

4
00:00:12,610 --> 00:00:17,970
As you get to know me better, you'll learn 
there are some topics that really get me 
fired up.

5
00:00:17,970 --> 00:00:20,900
Like looking at everything we do through 
the lens of student learning.

6
00:00:20,910 --> 00:00:26,100
Another one is making our voices heard by 
voting.

7
00:00:26,110 --> 00:00:32,040
About now, we're all a little tired of seeing 
all the political ads on TV and the constant 
news coverage.

8
00:00:32,040 --> 00:00:37,040
But we can never forget how important engaging 
in the politial process is.

9
00:00:37,040 --> 00:00:41,200
Today, I want to talk to you about why it's 
important to get registered to vote,

10
00:00:41,210 --> 00:00:45,600
To learn about the candidates and to vote 
for those that best represent what you believe 
in.

11
00:00:45,610 --> 00:00:48,600
Hey, I know that life can be hectic and you're 
busy.

12
00:00:48,610 --> 00:00:52,200
You may feel that your single vote will not 
made a difference. I get it.

13
00:00:52,210 --> 00:00:58,400
But we must do our very best to change the 
current culture of voter indifference because

14
00:00:58,410 --> 00:01:02,400
Your vote DOES count. Your vote DOES make 
a difference!

15
00:01:02,410 --> 00:01:06,800
We want to lead the charge in creating a 
culture of voting in the Klein community.

16
00:01:06,810 --> 00:01:12,500
In the coming weeks, you will see reminders 
from us about voter registration and the 
importance of voting.

17
00:01:12,510 --> 00:01:17,990
I encourage each of you to make a personal 
commitment to become about the candidates 
and issues.

18
00:01:17,990 --> 00:01:20,990
To consider volunteering at your local polling 
station.

19
00:01:20,990 --> 00:01:23,400
And most importantly, to vote.

20
00:01:23,410 --> 00:01:27,500
The last day to register to vote in the upcoming 
general election is October 11th.

21
00:01:27,510 --> 00:01:30,900
Early voting is October 4th through November 
4th.

22
00:01:30,910 --> 00:01:33,100
And election day is November 8th.

23
00:01:33,110 --> 00:01:38,000
Please hop on the voting train with us and 
let's work together to rock the vote in Klein.

24
00:01:38,010 --> 00:01:42,200
I'm Bret Champion and that's Klein ISD in 
90 seconds. See you next week.
