Check This: The View's Sherri Shepherd Has Never Voted

CitizenSugar — Tue, 29 Jan 2008 16:00:49 -0800

Sherri Shepherd announced on The View this morning that she's never voted. At 41 years of age, Sherri turned 18 in 1985. She claims that she's missed every single election because she didn't know what the dates were. (Sherri? First Tuesday after the first Monday in November. Always.) Adding to the abomination that she's a US citizen turning her back on her duty as an American, it seems like Sherri is also scorning all of those women who are still without the right to vote. In Sherri's lifetime, 18 countries have granted women's suffrage, including Switzerland in 1971 and Zimbabwe in 1978. It seems that this isn't a right women should take lightly.

Do you live somewhere that recently gave women the vote? Which is worse: that she hasn't voted, or that she's taking for granted the fact she can?
