Who is NOT going to vote in Nov?

I've heard a couple of people say they are NOT going to vote. I don't understand. When asked why they aren't voting they say things like "Because I don't want to" or "I don't even know what is going on with all of that. Are any of you guys not going to vote? Do share, please.

I have no intention of voting for either Presidential candidate. Imo, they both suck.

You think MCCain and Obama are equally sucky? Do you plan to do anything about that?

I think he is voting for a 3rd party, and really who would be in this forum if they didn't care at all.

I can understand the idea of voting by refusing to vote...I'm just not that cynical yet lol.

I don't understand how people can blow politics off completely. If you don't understand, it's one thing...but how can you not care at all??

Very much so.

What is there I can do? I can't change the candidates. I can go ahead and pencil in who I think would be more qualified or I can vote for a third party. Either way does about as good as flushing my ballot down the toilet.

I do plan on voting for the other offices on the ticket although I need to start researching that.

Actually, third party votes have had profound effects on many elections in our history.

I'd prefer to vote with a .50 cal. For some reason, other people call it murder and assassination, and on top of that, they tell me it's illegal. Pure Jackassery I tell you!

My felony prohibits me from voting, but even if I could, it'd be a race for who is more of a dumbass IMO.

You ever notice that lions always take down the weak or injured gazelles? It's the same for men trying to nail women. The weaker, sicker, more vulnerable ones are easier.
