I don't. I figure any election I'm interested in isn't going to be decided by one vote. |

Never. If I did I'd have to take responsibility for what the person I voted for did. I'm not old enough for that. |

Absolutely. It's kind of like the opposite of litering. Sure if you did it once, it doesn't matter, but if everyone did...things would be really carpy! It's easy not to vote and to have that mentality, I definitely understand! I just figure that: 1) It is our easiest way to influence national and world policies and events. 2) People in other countries walk dozens of miles to vote, surely I can take a few minutes and do the same. 3) People have died so that we have this type of system where the people really do elect our government officials! |

I have not missed a single election of any sort since I was old enough to vote. I'm sure that will surprise no one.

Kauai County mayor a few weeks ago (Kauai island 50,000 people) mayor won by two votes (and the state Supreme Court upheld it). Two votes for the incumbent mayor on Kauai. I'm thinking that one was fixed. |

I vote. Happy to live in a country that allows the individual to cast his or her vote when it comes to representation. Am I happy with my representatives? HELL NO! That's why I am on a "ELECT NO INCUMBENT!" track with my voting this election year. |

The irony factor might make the server spontaneously implode. I don't think it would be safe. |

I would vote if I was old enough. As it is I have no voice in government. Yay democracy

If this was a poll, those saying "no" would be wrong since participating in the poll would be voting.

Usually when I'm in the booth I cry out at the top of my lungs, "OH MY GOD I CAN'T DECIDE!" People stare at me and move out of my way.
