Do you vote regularly ?

Yes, I do. Local and national elections. So that means I get to whine and pule and complain as much as I want about those in office I didn't vote for, right?

You can scatter your votes, I usually do.  I vote by issue, being middle class, and not a globalist.  We don't have a party of our own.   \n\nYet.

Absolutely, if you do not vote then do not complain. You voice is through voting. Vote, work on campaigns, talk to your friends, if you have them, about your candidate, place signs in yard if Homeowners Association will allow. I worked on my 1st campaign when I was 15 yrs old & 35 yrs later I still try to support them. I hate stuffing enevolpes - always have. I study all the candidates & pick the one that will vote most closely to my beliefs. Then I try to trust & support them after voting for them.

Absentee ballots are often tossed.  Make sure you call to see if your vote was counted.

Lots of us DO!\nThose that don't mistakenly think their vote doesn't matter.\nOr they think registering is hard, or too "big-brother-ish"\nThey forget that voting is a PRIVILEGE that many countries do not offer!!!!

The last answer was closest to the truth. The question isn't should we, because we already do vote on it. When we elect our government officials, they in turn make vote in Congress and the senate. So we do vote but rather indirectly. Certainly we would all like to have a louder voice but that is the very drawback of democracy we only get one vote, the majority rules. No...we don't always THINK the majority is right but we have to live with it. It is best to accept it rather than contiually fighting against it.

No.  You do that on your own time.  What, you want to be paid to perform your civic duty too?  Jeesh.  The polls are open till 7.  Make time and stop making excuses.

Yes - I find the whole process fascinating.  I also believe that voting is an informed decision making process, so I keep up with local, state and national issues so I can make an informed decision.  How can a person complain about the state of things in their city, state and country if they are not well informed as to what is going on AND they don't vote!  If you don't exercise your right to vote, you shouldn't complain about the state of things.

Yes, I will. I am 58 and have voted in every election since I came of age, except for two times, , both mid-term elections like this coming Tuesday, which I missed because I was in a fast attack submarine on deployment in the Western Pacific.The way I see it, if you don't vote, you don't have the right to complain about the results.

Maybe you are happy with the way things are run, so you see no reason to vote.  But maybe you don't know yet how the government affects you.  Once you do, you may want to vote, or maybe you will think that your vote is powerless to change the system.  It is good that you are at least asking the question.

Yes, and since I live in Chicago, I did early and often! (Just kidding)\n\nYes, I voted this morning and then called my family and friends to make sure they did as well.

I vote in every election. If you don't vote, you have no right to complain about what you get for government.

lol its hard enough to get people to come out once every 4 years to vote for a president, most don't even bother.  Do you really think people will show up to vote on things every day, also think of how many misinformed morons are out there.

Yes. You can just vote for part of the ballot.
