And you don't have to answer this but for whom and why?
If you are not going to vote, do you realize how wrong that is and what a cop out it is, and that your NON VOTE all these years might have made a difference in the direction the world has proceeded?
Do you not realize that there is POWER in numbers and alone you are nothing?

And not only that US...I don't think they have a legal RIGHT to either.

Well margo I can't say I've voted for anyone I was head over heals for either but here when you vote you are voting for someone local too, but when one party has been screwing up for so long it's time to swing the other way.

Well Mark, I'm Canadian and our government is totally different, but I understand what you're saying, and I don't know what the answer is. Perhaps it is to swing in a direction where reform is possible and vote for an entirely different party, but that does not seem likely does it.

Good for you Jadis...again I'm not American...but when I am vehemently opposed to either big party I swing for the underdog. They have a way of keeping the big DAWGS in balance. Heck they actually WON one year...they were so totally unprepared for that.

Sure. I always vote. In all elections.
I'll be voting for Ron Paul for President.
I used to think that other people not voting was a bad thing but now I realize that by them failing to vote it's my vote that counts more. So I gave up worrying about whether other people will vote or not.
I just focus on what I do and try and influence others to my point of view to do the same. If others want to avoid voting then it's likely that they don't care and who cares what someone who doesn't care thinks anyway.

I have voted in every election, local and national, I vote for the person not the party. So far I have not seen anyone I could totally
trust. I will do my research, prior to the election. It is to early now.

When the parties have had their nominating conventions and we know for sure who is running I can better answer that. Most likely I will vote for the Democratic candidate for president but nothing is certain until it is certain.

No, I don't plan on voting next election time.
I used to vote, but I quit when I finally get fed-up-to-the-teeth with judicial activism.
You know what judicial activism is, don't you? That's when judges declare that abortion is a constitutional right, which it isn't. That's when judges declare that "sodomy" laws are unconstitutional, which they aren't. It's when judges declare that gay couples have a constitutional right to get married, which they don't.
It's when the judges decide that it is better to NOT find out who won a presidential election, rather than to find out who DID. If the Supreme Court won't allow our votes to be counted, why bother voting? I can't vote out the crooks who are serving on the U.S. Supreme Court or on the Massachusetts Supreme Judicial Court, so I won't vote.

I am most definitely going to vote!! It's not just a right, it's a DUTY.
I don't know who I'm voting for yet, but I'm leaning Republican for a lot of reasons.
Frankly, ANYONE but Hillary!!

I don't know who I'm going to vote for yet -- I'm a conservative Democrat (conservative in the traditional fiscal sense, NOT affiliated with any bogus religious group).
Voting remains one of the best ways to exercise one's voice in a democracy. Those who don't vote, I believe, have less reason to complain about the course of government.

I ASSUME YOUR TALKING ABOUT NEXT YEAR'S ELECTION SINCE WHERE I LIVE THERE'S NOT MUCH GOING ON. I WILL VOTE FOR RUDY GIULIANI NEXT YEAR WHEN HE BECOMES THE REPUBLICAN PARTY CANDIDATE FOR PRESIDENT. HE SEEMS TO BE THE MOST CAPABLE IN DEALING WITH MANY OF THE PROBLEMS OF THE COUNTRY FOREMOST DEALING WITH TERRORISM. HE CLEANED UP NEW YORK CITY.

The vote of the American citizen is private. That is how I intend to keep my vote.
