IF YOU KNEW YOUR VOTE WOULDN'T COUNT, WOULD YOU VOTE ANYWAY ?


[+] serious ballot by thesoothsayer
ACTIVE May 27,2008 - Wed May 27, 09
No, I'm not talking about people who vote already knowing their vote is going to a loser... I'm talking about a vote that will not be considered due to it being held by a sanctioned entity in disobeyance of governing body rules fully knowing the results will not be "official." There has been a lot of clamor and chatter involving the legitimacy of votes which should not be considered due to the fact many people UNDERSTOOD they would be wasting their time going to the polls for "nothing"... due to wilful and intentional breaking of the rules... so, to repeat the question, would you bother voting if you knew in advance it was not going to be counted ? (please try to stick to the question and not make a case for whether or not they should or should not be counted, thank you)

I would vote even if I knew it would not count 7
I would not waste my time voting if I knew it wouldn't count 1
I don't think my vote counts anyway 1

Ballot #126950: has 9 total votes.

Yes, just So I can say in good conscious that I did my part to vote against the crook that is currently in ofice.

In my opinion, if you don't vote, then you shouldn't get to complain.

Now that the CIA has infiltrated the Libertarian Party, I don't know who I will vote for.

I wish we had write-in votes here.sad

If you live in Florida, I guess there is always the chance that they will mess up in their attempts to NOT count the votes people have made!

It's just an edifying habit to get into.

It happened in California on one of the same-sex marriage ballot.
A judge simply overturned it, good or bad.
But it can be scary. If a judge do not like the outcome, just find a reason to overturn the ballot.

I ALWAYS vote out of repect to those who fought and sacificed their lives in the Revolutionary War.

Their efforts made it possible for me to have the opportunity to vote and to have it mean something.
