VOTING RIGHTS
The four lenses and deliverance include natural and social sciences, humanities, and history.
Firstly, natural science is any science that deals with matter, energy, and their interrelations and
transformations or with objectively measurable phenomena. Second, social science is a branch of
science that deals with the institutions and functioning of human society and the interpersonal
relationships of individuals as members of society. Humanities is the branch of learning that
investigates human constructs and concerns instead of natural processes and social relations.
Lastly, history is a branch of knowledge that records and explains past events. Physics, biology,
and chemistry are subcategories that fall underneath the natural science field. Scientists in this
field utilize the scientific method as a guide for research. Subcategories such as physics,
chemistry, and biology fall below the natural science lens. Is formulating on factual evidence
from deliberation and evaluation. Essential evidence comes from primary sources which are
credible, admissible, and respectable sources. Three primary research tool share scholarly articles
dissertations, and scientific experiments. When dissecting social science and its characteristics,
The wide variety of academic fields include but are limited to sociology, economics, geography,
and psychology. The natural science and social science research processes are like the scientific
method. When looking through this lens, a few more examples of evidence would be simple
knowledge of the field, photographs, maps, government documents, and as mentioned the
scientific method. Humanities allow scientists of different cultures to identify similarities and
differences. Evidence used by the humanity lens would hold documents regarding such as
historical newspapers, first hand journals, personal diaries, words of art, music, literature, and
even case law. The history lens allows researchers to recollect the past. The two types of
evidence are primary and secondary resources. Primary resources are autobiographies, oral
histories, and scholarly and social articles. More history examples using secondary resources
would include myographies, scholarly articles, essays, and interpretations of a historical event.
Each one shares similarities, but among all four lenses the two that share the most similar
characteristics are social science and humanities since both lenses use human behavior
involvement. the way they differ is how they conduct their research. With the scientific approach
scientists find the reasons for human behavior. History and natural science are similar because
both use primitive reasoning in their clarifications. They show their differences when you look at
the study of the physical world in natural science and History; the area of knowledge is from past
events.
I am 36 years old and I started voting at the age of 18. When I first started voting it was very
different than from what it is now. That I already know is that you used to have to go to a certain
voting place in which county you were living in and they used to have food that you stepped into
to do your voting and it seemed a little scary then because people were so Stern and bossy but I
learned that was how it was back then from today. As for the humanities lens is where the booths
are polling places coming to actions because people would defer you to a booth and then show
you where to drop your ballot and they were very serious about not looking around or really
talking to anybody while you were there to vote and it seemed a little on to me then but I
understand why it was like that then but not now. For what I know in the social science lens is
that people rarely talked when they went to vote unless you has Thatcher or money then they
seem to let those people gossip while they waited to vote but for the most part people hardly
talked when they were voting and I still don't quite understand why some get to but others don't
still to this day. Last but not least the natural science lens is where they have tried a couple
different ways that people can vote nowadays unlike the past but it turned out to still have snags
that they did not see coming and they are still trying to work out those flaws in the ways you can
go now so that it counts it properly and not have a lot of recounts like they had when Donald
Trump friend last year.
Well for one I would like to know if they have fixed the glitches in online voting from last year?
Also why have they changed it from having to go into a booth to vote and now just sitting at a
table while voting is legal? For the last last question that I have that I would like answered is are
people allowed to talk amongst themselves while waiting to vote now days. I still don't quite
understand why people get their voting right taken away when they get in trouble because as I've
heard over the years every vote counts but they’re taking people’s votes away which could be
counted and it makes no sense what makes them different from anybody else just because they
got in trouble that shouldn’t have anything to do with it.
Yes I looked it up on Google and they have apparently fixed the glitches in online voting bye
sitting out software upgrades and also putting the 20 names in two separate columns on the same
page. As for my next question about having to use a boo th is because nowadays it is more digital
than what it was backed in and most people know who they want to vote for more often now
than they have backed in because they get to research it more and talk about it more than they
did back in the past and in my last question about being able to talk amongst people while they
wait to vote is more open than what it used to be because people figured out that they can discuss
certain things and find out more information and maybe even change their mind to vote on due to
the new information they get that they didn’t have before.
