Anyone just going to say "the heck with it" and not going to vote?

At the polling station? Or just now because I've already chosen not to vote because neither candidates impress me.

I'll definitely vote in the local elections, but I might abstain from voting in the presidential election.

I thought about voting, but then realised I am Canadian and living in Toronto, ON. Does that count?

I am voting, but only for local government. I refuse to vote for either of the POTUS candidates. I am going to do a write in for POTUS. Pedobear gets my vote.

Please move to China, there's no voting there. Or better yet, move to North Korea, you don't have voting rights and you get executed for treason.

Ps. Mailed out my absentee ballot last week. :thumbsup:

For those not voting then never complain about any politician or the government for another 4 years.

Then again that's one way to keep out of P&N.

If you don't vote, you have no right to complain about or praise the direction of the country. If you don't vote, STFU, sit back, and enjoy the ride.

If someone is THAT far removed from reality that they don't even have the guts to go into the booth and pick a candidate -- hell, write in a candidate, or just vote for local offices -- then I think that person is pretty pathetic..

So you are saying that you aren't voting in the Presidential election?

QQ moar.

Although, I am a fan of the first amendment and I don't recall a clause in there that says you have to vote to speak you mind. Hmmm, care to point that out?

I already voted. Went a bit more conservative this time and voted Democrat in some races to keep out Republicans.

I think it's pathetic that someone wants to knock on someone for exercising their right. I don't keep up enough with local politics to get into those, but either way I'm not quite sure who would be right for the country as the POTUS in that election. So I abstain.
