We live in a country where we are allowed to choose whether or not we want to vote.

I understand the importance of voting. However, I also understand the freedom to choose. Voters who crucify non-voters for exercising said freedom do not fully grasp the concept of what it means to be free.

Uh no. This is a republican's excuse to prevent poor people from voting by claiming they are "ill-informed".

i understand the importance of voting, and i don't vote, because i also understand that i am in a republican enclave county in a blue state and my vote isn't going to matter much either way, at state level because it's gonna go liberal anyway and on a local level because it's gonna go conservative anyway.


there are many people who think like that, those non votes add up fast

If you don't like the candidates, then obviously you shouldn't feel compelled to vote.

But if you have an (ideally informed) opinion on who you think should or should not be in office, I think it's in your best interest to vote assuming you're able.

I haven't voted for a while now because I don't feel comfortable doing so unless I can come to an informed opinion. And that never happens. Primarily because I don't feel like actually doing any research.

This has always been bullshit people only say because they don't like nonvoters having opinions on politics.

If you dont vote you have no say in what happens your opinion is invalid

All opinions aren't equally. If you're not gonna vote then keep your opinion to yourself.

I don't vote because I hate politicians. They pander to us when they need our votes but then when they're in office they bow down to the will of the lobbyists or to whatever the hell their party is doing. They ultimately don't give two shits about us. Fuck them.

I voted, but I defend the right to not vote. And also the right to complain even if you didn't vote as it falls under the 1st Amendment. Especially if you're complaining that all the candidates were awful and/or unfit to serve.

However, you're not free from backlash of the public when they discover you didn't vote.
