Do you vote?
 

Why?

____

Yes, because if you don't, yet complain about your government you are a hipocrite :upsidedow

I sell my vote.

Who says you have to complain?

Depends on what i am voting for.

yes I do, especially local elections

You don't have to complain. You can be a complete sheep and let your government commit abuse while your friends, family and neighbors remain in the dark, often re-electing the same abusers. I just choose not to do so. Anyone within my realm that votes for an abuser of their power does so with facts in hand. I can live with that more than knowing they voted that way out of not knowing :upsidedow

Yes I do, because it's my right as a Citizen :)

yep and I almost always vote republican

Yes I do, becouse it's my duty as a Citizen :)

I started voting last year, and it was a complete waste of time

I'm not sure I'll bother anymore.

Yes of course I do.

Best graphitti I ever saw was on a red brick building on Preble St. in downtown Portland, ME... "If voting ever really made a difference it would be illegal."

absolutely, so I have more justification in the bitching process when something needs bitching about...

:thumbsup

I do because its my noble responsibilty as a citizen. voting gives you the right to bitch around.

Because it's your right..don't bitch about politics if you don't even vote

i vote only because my family has always been political, so i ask my dad and grandparents who to vote for and go vote for who they say

....and btw, they/we are demo's

Of course. In all elections: Federal, provincial and municipal.

"Those who don't do politics will be done in by politics."

i vote for stuff like legalizing pot and drugs.

Read Jean Jacques Rosseau's Social Contract!

:thumbsup :thumbsup :thumbsup

As long as you vote :thumbsup

Voting is compulsory in Australia.

Don't fine and you wear a fine.

Noice :thumbsup

Voting is not just a right, it's an obligation. We live in a democratic society and it's important for EVERY voice to be heard.

Wanna know why idiots like GW get elected? Because Republicans vote...nearly all of them. The voice of the young, educated, open-minded citizens of your country need to be hard too and the opinion that 'my vote doesn't count anyway so why bother?' is just pathetic.

I vote because if you dont you lose that right.

Yes, because if i don't somebody else will vote for me.

Oooopss.... I meant don't vote and you wear a fine.

Goddamn weed! :pimp :1orglaugh

So true.
I met people who complain about anything and everything. Then I ask them who they voted on instead.... "I did not vote" ... doooh! Have they ever thought of instead of whining, they could change it by voting?
Its not only a right, its also a duty. Otherwise... shut up IMO :error

what if you dislike all of the candidates...

of course i do! coz i want my voice to be heard.

No matter where I am in the world I always vote - obviously often it is postal.

The number of people who have died over the last 500 years for that right makes me feel obligated to ensure that I vote.

If you don't vote then you have no grounds to complain if the government fuck things up.

in two different countries and go to a good deal of effort to do it in the states..i always vote

yep..because i want to vote

I vote because I can.

because we are lucky enough to live in a country where our vote does count, you voting is also usually a chain reaction the more people who DO vote the better a country is.

Yes I believe in that crap.

it is our right. yes i do vote.

Then you vote blank, to tell them you disagree.
Not voting at all is telling nothing. :)

Good, your country needs you. :1orglaugh

What makes you think your vote actually counts?

No, I dont vote. Voting gets you on jury duty lists and shit. :321GFY

Heaven forbid you should have to be involved with removing criminals from outside your door :1orglaugh

what makes you think it doesn't?

I run a brothel for local politicians.

I do vote. Sometimes it helps.

Responsibilities!
 

Indeed, I DO vote; and, I (hopefully) vote responsibly by making certain I know/research the pertinent issues, the incumbent's record, and the challenger(s) position. IMHO, ALL elections are important---from city through national ones---and, we have a responsibility to our Nation/families/selves to vote!

Dave

I vote in every single election. Be it local, mid term, general, etc.

Voting is the greatest thing we have in our country.

George W. Bush.

This wont tell them anything... because 'non-votes' aren't counted and don't count for anything... and now with the new Diebold electronic voting machines that can be hacked to shit, who knows what votes are real and what votes are Memorex...?
