I have just came back from the polls.
Shame on those of you who think your single vote doesn't matter by the way. This is a fallacy. By not voting you are implicitly voting for the person who managed to get the majority/plurality. You are saying something much more worse than "I don't care". You're saying "I don't care and I'm going to vote on the winner, whoever that is". Don't you see how this is a destructive decision? You complain about the country being corrupt and broken and not vote on the most important election. This is the election where local people are up for re-election along with every member of the House in congress and 1/3rd of the Senate. How is this not important? They are the ones who make laws which is much more important than a president who just formalises the acceptance of said law.
