Hey, have you decided how you're going to vote?
No I haven't.
I don't like any of the candidates.
So you aren't going to vote.
Hum I don't know. Probably not.
It seems like a waste of time.
Really.
Why do you think it's a waste of time?
Have you listened to any of their speeches?
Yes I have. And I agree that their speeches aren't very good.
Exactly.
I can't believe anything they say.
They are just saying what they think we want to hear.
Sure they want to get elected.
I admit that the system isn't perfect, but it's all we have.
Whether I vote or not won't make a difference.
It's all a show.
Well, I think you should vote.
Do a little research about the candidates.
Have you.
Yes I have.
I looked into their backgrounds and education.
How can that help.
For example, if they know something about science, it could help the government make better decisions about issues such as climate change.
Yes, that's a good point.
We need well educated people making decisions.
And I look to see what kind of people are supporting them.
I don't like any of the candidates.
Whether I vote or not won't make a difference.
It seems like a waste of time.
What issues do you think are most important?
I guess for me, pollution, housing and taxes are important.
I wanna know how the government plans to deal with these issues.
Yes, I agree with you.
Maybe I will vote, especially if we can get together and talk more about it.
What about dinner tomorrow night?
Sorry, I'm busy tomorrow night.
Oh that's too bad.
At any time in the next few days.
I'll take you to a nice restaurant.
Actually I'm quite busy.
We have some time Sunday afternoon.
We could have lunch somewhere near the office.
Sure that works for me.
I'll give you a call on Saturday.
Ok. I'll be looking forward to seeing which candidate you support.
