It does not matter how you vote, but you should. I don\'t care what party you are or who you vote for. I am always depressed during off-year elections to see I am usually the youngest person there.
I have not and never will agree with the attitude of "I\'ll prove a point by staying home and not voting." This does not prove anything because there is no way to track the reason you stayed home. Further more, the less people that vote, the less people it takes to swing an election. I wish there were multiple parties. Not just 2 or 3, the more the better. I wish we had 100% voter turnout every time. Most years we don\'t break 35% which is an insult to all the generations of people who died for the sole purpose of giving you that right.
Maybe it\'s just me, but I\'m probably the only person here who has read the republic as well. As Plato said, the man upset with his government who is unwilling to step up and do a better job himself has no grounds to complain about anything the goverment does.
I learned a long time ago people will do what they want and you can\'t change peoples attitudes. Still, I will be there hanging out with the senior citizens today.
There is a reason that viagra is available over the counter and marijuana is illegal. Older people vote, younger people don\'t.
