Does it really matter who you vote for? Does it really matter if you vote at all?

It matters.
If you don't vote, you have no right to b itc h about the job the person is doing in office.
I am so glad that everyone doesn't have your same thought. Of course you should vote! What is it hurting if you do?

Yes, it really matters who you vote for. One vote can make or break a candidate's attempt to obtain public office. One vote can make or break a bond referendum, or other public offering.
Do you want NO say in your local government? If so, then don't vote. If you want to be able to have a choice on who is your local mayor, supervisor, or whatever the office is, then vote.
It really matters. Senator-Elect Jim Webb won by less than 9000 votes. With 2313 voting precincts in Virginia, if about 4 people per precinct who voted for him stayed home, then he would not be Senator-Elect.

Yes it matters. What if you didn't have the right to vote, would you still feel the same way?

No. It doesn't matter. Because the unelected Supreme Court is in charge of things which it should not be in charge of. That body has usurped far too much power. And there is nothing we can do about it. Our votes will never change the Supreme Court.

I think so, if every one thought that way, no one would be elected
