 Quick Poll! 
#3187097 - 09/28/04 12:54 AM (18 years, 2 months ago) |

PLEASE REGISTER TO VOTE! IF YOU HAVEN'T REALIZED IT YET, YOU ONLY HAVE ONE WEEK LEFT TO REGISTER TO VOTE! A LOT OF THE PEOPLE THAT HAVE REGISTERED TO VOTE WON"T GET TO BECAUSE THEY ARE NOT BEING NOTIFIED IF IT DOES NOT GO THROUGH! PLEASE CHECK AND REGISTER!
In this election, every vote counts. Please, register and get out to the polls!
Also, if you don't want to vote for the presidential candidates, i really encourage everyone to get out and vote in their local governments. YOU make a difference and we must act as a lubed up well oiled machine to change our wack ass laws.

I met the green party candidate, Cobb, at the Progressive Festival in petaluma the other day. I'm going to be doing some volunteer work for my party now too. I talked to some guy at the Green Party booth and he smoked me out afterwards.. God i love being green

I registered this year and I'm voting for Kerry. I used to be apathetic about politics because I saw it as being false hope and a game, but now that's the exact reason I'm voting. There's really no telling how this election will turn out considering how many new voters there are going to be.

Do you actually even know who is going to be on the ballot for President? Or don't you care? Sheesh.
Besides, this is the wrong board for this.

I do care, thats why i made this poll silly head :P
Wrong board? No way. This decision will affect everyone in a lot of different ways, and restraining it to the less trafficed "politics, activism, and law" forums is just stupid. I wanted a quick tally from my fellow pubbers

Registered, not voting~
If any 3rd party canidate was near 5% I'd vote for federal matching funds..
But in the electoral system my vote doesnt count so why bother~

heh, well if all the people with the same thought (that they'd vote if a 3rd party was close to matching funds) went out and voted.. they might actually get there. :p

your vote DOES count! That attitude unfortunately pollutes the minds of many young people, which sucks.

Take a little time and get out there. Even if your vote doesn't "count" in the presidental election, it can have an impact in the local ones. Plus you get to vote on Ballot Measures etc..

yeah, but isn't he right about that. i never understood this. like why is there so much effort put into trying to get so many people to register and vote.. yet our votes don't actually mean anything when it comes down to it? would someone explain to me why we should vote then, please?

The important thing is not to stop questioning. Curiosity has its own reason for existing. One cannot help but be in awe when he contemplates the mysteries of eternity, of life, of the marvelous structure of reality. It is enough if one tries merely to comprehend a little of this mystery every day. Never lose a holy curiosity. ~ Albert Einstein

Badnarik is on the ballot in more states than Nader, so where is he in this poll? This poll is biased. Get it? Probably not, and that's why you will never change anything with your vote.
And why isn't this in the politics forum?
And who said anything about not voting? Not I.
