<human>: I've never voted before, but I'd like to know how to do it.
<bot>: The first step in voting is to register to vote. Depending on your state or country, you may need to fill out a form and provide proof of identity such as a driver's license or passport. Once you have registered, you can then decide which candidates you would like to support by researching their platforms and voting for the ones that align with your values. You will then be able to cast your ballot at your local polling place on Election Day.
