VOTE!

[CKN]

Probably not voting. I hate having to participate in the charade of the existing duopoly. (ex, Look at Georgia senatorial candidates of Tweedledee and Tweedledum).

I voted but with a two party system sometimes both (sides) are pathetic.

 

[Malo83]

Don't Vote, tired of all the BS, nothing but corruption on both sides and all the political ads on tv.

 

[GrtArtiste]

In before the lock. Haven't voted since 2000 and no plans to ever do so again. No one good enough to vote for. Anyway...we always get the government that we deserve.

 

[RazorsEdge]

I gave up on the lies years ago.

 

[miden851]

[hrv]

You better have enough for a whole week you'll know nothing tonight

I am hoping that it will not even be close....

 

[pbm]

Ugh, can't decide. Which evil manipulative monkey-pandering hypocrite do I vote for.

Maybe it's just a GA thing. All our candidates supposedly ran over their wives with cars.

One of your candidates is an angry man....I’d vote for the guy with the big smile and big heart.

I’m usually voting against somebody rather than for somebody....term limits would solve a lot of our problems.

Voting for the lesser of two evils, you just can't win!

Wonder what would happen if everyone stopped participating in this clown show?
Wasn’t there some clause about minimum voter participation or such?

Well you’re going to get one or the other, maybe ask your successful neighbor and vote how they do?

Inaction is condoning the current conditions, no matter what situation you find yourself in.

Actually the act of voting validates the current system. Ask yourself why the the majority of the states do not have ranked choice voting? Why don't they require a minimum turnout for an election to be consider valid? Why insist on the duopoly (two-party system)?

It's all about the campaign contributions (ie control of the cookie jar and voting the party line regardless. Besides, it's staff members which actually write the majority of the legislation. The Senator/Representative spends most of their time raising $$.

Edit: I'm also not thrilled with the current SOP of elections are legitimate if we win and illegitimate if we lose. A bunch of Jerry's kids.

Unfortunately no. This is why pundits says midterm elections being out the most extreme party voters and consequently they have an outsized influence on policy.

I always vote early through the mail. No stamp needed.

Vote. Or don't vote. Your choice.
