imo, depending on the case, not voting is no throwing away your vote. what if there are no candidates that are worth voting for? just pick the lesser of the N evils? being vocal on saying i'm not voting at all for some reason like no one is worth voting for (backed up with why each candidate is not worthy) should send a message to the politicians that something is not right with them. they may think that all people that don't vote are idiots, don't understand the government, or too lazy (which may be true in some cases). what if people are too disgusted with the current state of the government is the reason. doesn't take long to find something on TV that shows some political leader is throwing a trantrum because he said or did that while the true issues at hand are being sidelined, sometimes it seems that vacations (not like they don't take enough or anything) are put infront of getting a bill through. If need be, I'll vote for '3rd party' candidate, the libertarian party is looking awfully tempting.
Lex Luthor '08 anyone? |
