Amen!

Also, check your residency requirements and Cook PVI for where you come from. It may be game changing to cast your vote from upper Bumfuckistan or whatever they call where you're from.

I'll vote, but that doesn't mean I think it counts. I vote because it takes five minutes, and there are worse things to do politically, I suppose. I guess so long as we're stuck with such a shitty fucking system (Here's a tip: "representative" government isn't. It's those who can afford to play games with power and money, who get power to keep playing games with power and money. Exceptions to the rule don't have the strength of voice to do much of anything, because our system is designed to gridlock any really powerful legislation, basically), I may as well vote for people who might make it suck just a little bit less.

Still, I admit I'm a bit of an elitist (the elite here being people who don't have their heads up their asses), so the idea of incompetent people having political rights at all makes me very wary of the system.
