Let's not get too long-winded here, alright?

Absolutely! I ALWAYS vote, and frankly I don't understand why people who are ABLE to vote do not take the time to actually do it. I believe that it's a right AND a responsibility. How can things ever change if we don't vote to make them so? And right now.... OMG do things ever need changing!

Of course I will. Why wouldn't someone vote in the mid-terms? Not only is the entire U.S. House up for re-election (happens every two years), but 1/3 of the Senators are being elected too (one from my state - MN). On top of this, MN is electing a governor and state legislators, not to mention several local positions, too (for us, sheriff and city council). And an amendment to the State's Constitution is on the ballot.
Many reason why I'm voting this year, and why I vote every year. Everyone's vote DOES count!

Yes, and have since the DAY I turned 18, .... I've exercised my DUTY (voting is a duty!) every single election....and as an FYI, if you don't KNOW the candidates don't vote for either, you can go in and vote for only (example) president....TOO MANY people think they have to fill out the whole form...TOO MANY people then vote for whomever had the neatest signs, the coolest TV ads....
RESEARCH PEOPLE!....request an absentee ballot then get on the internet and google the candidates and educate yourself as to their issues...pros and cons
The internet is the KEY to education (if used correctly and you know when you're being scammed or fed do do)...use it!

I vote in every election. I don't want to take my citizenship rights for granted, because so many people in other countries only dream of voting. I also don't want to complain if I haven't voted, because how can you complain about something if you haven't at least made an effort to improve it?
So yeah. Stay as educated about the topics in voting as you can, and vote, dammit! :)

Yes
I don't like the Congress, Senate, or any of our State reps. I am going to Vote for NEW people. Not Dem. or Rep.

Yes, to get those Republicans out before they cause even MORE trouble!

Vote: Yes.
Why? "Speaker of the House, Nancy Pelosi."

Yes. It's a civic duty and you don't have a right to b*tch about anything if you don't vote.

Yes, I plan to. Because that's the only thing I can do to change things.
