Thread: Who voted and for what?

Hey! Junk science is still science. Or at least "sciency."

And, once again, the potheads forgot to show up and vote. Gee, wonder why....

The measure drew strong support from voters younger than 25, as the campaign had hoped, but those voters did not turn out in unusually high numbers, according to a state exit poll.

I was anti incumbent, especially if they had voted for Obamacare

I sadly will admit I have not voted. Nor I doubt I will, not since the last Bush bull**** with all the fraud and open corruption that goes on. It is very hard to feel your vote will do jack ****, when votes are not just hidden but also blatantly ignored and counted in such a way as to not merit. Add that to how the military vote is and being ex-military myself well **** that just makes it even harder to think your vote will do ****.

This is how I generally felt all during the bush presidency. I didn't even vote once during that time. It wasn't until when obama was elected that I got out and voted. I decided that if I make the effort, it at least wont be my fault if it is rigged... I did my part to get the people closest to my views in power. Even though it's pretty clear that they are all corrupt anyway... and if they aren't, they will be.

My mother was unable to vote until she was 38. So I ALWAYS vote. Even for dogcatcher. If you think our system is bad, try living under a true "one man, one vote" system. Specially when the one man with the vote is bat**** crazy.

Look at it this way Bushido, you - and many like you - cared enough in 2008 to vote. And that got Obama elected. OK, so you ****ed up, but hey; it was still enough to get him over the top. So individual votes do add up.

Well, I don't think I F'ed up at all. Unfortunately, there are still republicans in congress/the senate so no president is going to be able to do anything really useful. Luckily, Obama didn't ef it up as bad as McCain would have, so that's something. There is no way for the current system to work as long as money is involved. As long as senators and reps can make millions doing it, the corruption will never leave. Now that the republicans control the house though, it will be much more clear who's effing what up.
