What blatant nonsense to those that think if you do not vote you have no right to complain. There are some of us that have convictions and will not choose between the lesser of 2 evils. What are we supposed to do when faced with there is no choice because there is no 3rd party on the ballot? What a tyrant attitude to consider that freedom of speech depends on a action{voting}
I have a two verse poem that I wrote:
I will not vote for the lesser of evil.
And give up my soul to impress the sheeple.
Are you sure there are no third party candidates on your ballot? It's usually pretty rare not to have any on it. Otherwise you can just write in yourself, or mickey mouse
Otherwise i'll be up bright and early to vote, this midterm is very important.

You missed where I said I was voting. I have stayed home at times because the choices were awful.
I'm planning on it. I've had it with partisan politics, corporate donations, "earmarks," fear campaigns, smear campaigns, bailouts, special-interest groups, lobbyists, tea parties and everything else associated with this crazy political process. Am I the only one who thinks common sense politics is dead? Everything's about how to best serve the corporations while placating the far left or far right. I know this sounds un-American, but I don't think voting this year is going to solve anything or bring about change. Voting is pointless. I'm totally disengaging from the whole process. It's basically hopeless at this point. Might as well just live my life the best I can, pray for my nation and try to serve my country. Forget politics.
Please vote. Many Many people have given their lives for us being able to do so. Albeit alot of them are probably rolling in their graves because of the mess that we have gotten into
Vote against every incumbent, every time, forever! That's the only way we can impose term limits and regain control of the government. This will send a message to special interests that it is going to cost them a lot more to buy elections if they have to do it all over every two years with all new candidates.

Gee, it looks like you are one of the few. Thank you for doing your civil duty!!
What process would you rather see? and what suggestions do you have for making the country a better place?
More bad comes from staying home and letting the vocal minority win.
Just look at your local elections and what comes out of that with approx 10% of the population voting.

Write in a vote. Vote for yourself. Vote for a 3rd Party. Vote out an incumbent. Vote for SOMEBODY.
You are still voicing your opinion and your disgust.
