i think a lot of people don't feel that their vote really counts for much, especially after all the confusion over the last election. i'm not saying that's an excuse, or that i feel that way. but we're not a pure democracy. and we don't have it all down like we sometimes claim.

people like you who voice their opinions and do it loudly, though, do bring more of an awareness. in my city, they're expecting a 75 to 80 percent voter turnout, which is completely unheard of. very cool. regardless of whether they're voting for the candidate you or i think is best.
