I have never missed a election since i turned 18. Even the small local bond stuff nobody seems to care about. I figured i couldn't complain if i didn't vote. But when i comes to voting for the presedent. I don't think we as americans have much say. Doesen't the electorial collage vote for the pres? Even though the popular vote has chosen one or the other the electorial collage isn't obligated to follow them. Haven't they casted thier vote aginst the popular vote in the past? No i'm not dragging up what happened in 2000. But who are these people? And why can't we elect them? Any other election my vote probally counts. If the voting machine records it correctly. I think we have a much better chance at getting something done by changing our congress. I can't bring myself to vote for a incumbent. No matter what the party. They have proven to me time and time again that i'm not in thier best intrest. Just lookup your congressmans voting record. It will suprise you!!
