Then I will not listen to any potential complaints about America you make.

 

Not like I'm expecting any; you seem pretty optimistic about it.

If you have an issue with him, I suggest you talk to him personally. There is no need to try and start an argument with him because of other issues you have with him.

Why even bother? It is all about the electoral college votes anyway.

There is more than just a presidential election going on tomorrow. You know, there are lawmakers to pick and the such and their election does not depend on the electoral college.

Neither is my father, but probably for vastly different reasons than you, which I can't discuss here due to the subjects that it may come upon. And of course, I won't be voting due to be only 16 years old and having a very small view on politics.

Well, I'm sorry. Recent arguments you've had with him led me to believe this was some form of a condescending statement.

For the record, it -isn't- just about the electoral college this time around. Four states, with a total of about 50 electoral votes between them, have pledged their votes to the winner of the popular vote. So even if you're in a solid blue or solid red state, you should totally vote for the candidate you support, because if he gets the popular vote then he gets those four states' votes.

 

So remember that. It actually really is about the popular vote this year – so your vote does indeed count.

 

(All of that is assuming you support one of the two major candidates and also the system itself; if you don't, then you can just move along from this post.)

And as I pointed out there is also more at stake than just the presidential election tomorrow. The selection of the lawmakers, you know, those guys who pass the bills and what not that determine a lot of what happens in this country, is also at hand. Those are not determined by the electoral college, they are determined by popular vote.

Isn't political discussion banned from BZPower?Wait,it's only if we argue about the candidates,right or left?

Blogs have more freedom this way, they just can't get into the hard issues that start arguments and flame fests.

As an American citizen, you have every right not to vote. But, even if you don't agree with the two leading candidates, and would rather not vote for either, you can still vote for a lesser known candidate. This doesn't mean that the candidate you voted for will win the election, but it's better to vote for who you truly want to win than not at all. Your opinion matters.

 

Because if nobody votes, why should we even have a right to vote anyway? The government can easily pic a new president themselves.

 

We wouldn't want that, now would we?

 

 

 

I'm a bit late anyway, just offering my two cents...

By that same coin, my lack of opinion also matters. ;)

So that the people who wish to vote are able to do so.

 

Voting is a right, not a duty. We as citizens aren't -required- to vote--that'd infringe upon our rights as free citizens.

 

We also have the right to own guns, would would you ever see me touch one? No way.
