I keep hoping that the American people with get fed up with Bush and his cronies and charge them with impeachable offenses.  Might just happen after tomorrow.

Did you vote in today's election to get someone who reflects your views into office???\n\nDon't just observe it change it.

I was wondering the same thing because I wanted to see if there are others out there who get involved and what that means to different people.\nI vote.

The votes were counted, it just didn't turn out like some people were hoping for. Anyway, they do have the right (freedom of speech) but they're credibility on the issue goes right out the window since if they didn't vote

Absolutely yes. I vote every election. That is my debt to all the armed services, past and present.\nWe had the touch screen machines, and it went smooth as glass. In and out in under ten minutes including signing in and everything.

Will you vote on election day?

No, because it doesn't matter if you do vote. Politicians do what they want not what they're elected for, and most voting systems don't allow proper representation.

Yes, but you are wasting your vote

It means that it doesn't matter who votes for a candidate, it matters who is recording the votes matter more. In other words, if you have people on 'your side' that are counting the votes, they can mis-count in order for you to win the votes. So, it doesn't matter who you really vote for when you have corrupt people working in the system counting the votes.

Just over 70% in my county. Not like it used to be.\n\nAbout 30 years ago I came home from work, had supper and went to the polls. They greeted me very warmly because I was the only voter unaccounted for. After I cast my ballot, they closed up with 100% turnout.\n\nWhen I hear of low turnouts, it saddens me almost as much as knowing how uninformed those few are.\n\nPerhaps we need an IQ test for voter registration, and if you miss two consecutive elections, you are disenfranchised. Sounds fair to me.

Yes, I did know this, and I do this. I check up on my "representatives" (not that they actually represent) and I let them know when I am not happy with them, what way I want them to vote on upcoming issues, and I make sure they are well aware that their job hangs on their choices.

right now it seems, none of us... for instance in Florida, we have new computerized voting machines with NO paper trail.  why?  when you purchase something at a store don't you want a receipt?  but for an election there is no proof that i even voted.  wake up america.

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.
