I for one am not, because I feel I have no direct impact to who wins. Does anybody else feel this way as well?

If I vote it always makes watching all the returns for umpteen plus hours much more interesting ;) Plus lots of other offices and proposals are on the ballot, not just the prez stuff :)

In the Kennedy v. Nixon election the winner was determined by an average of one vote per precinct!

If that is your reason for not voting I give you permission to remain ignorant.

I think most members of the electoral college WILL vote the way the popular vote goes. For one thing they would probably be out a pay check if they didn't!

We will never know who really wins due to the electoral college. They dictate who wins, its all about trust. Im going to vote but I dont know if it will do any good, but what if?

I have one simple saying when it comes to voting:

If You Don't Vote, Don't Bitch!!!!

I get so tired of hearing people that don't vote bitch about the state of affairs. Maybe if everyone exercised their voting privelages they would make a difference. Then again maybe not.

But anyone that doesn't vote has no right to complain. Blame only yourself.
