I have voted in every mid-term election except one (my dad had open heart the day before). I take citizen ship very seriously. I often help candidates running in local elections when I can. I am embarrassed when I listen to these two debate or see the TV ads. I teach U.S. History and I am embarrassed that the 11th grade students have to listen to these two. My students do not know I won't vote and I have never allowed them to know who I support (past) as I do not want to influence them. Our elections use to be the envy of the world and now are not much different than those that take place around the world.

    This country needs serious election reform, the amount of money and time spent has to be reduced and the two party system needs to be scrapped.


    I will vote on election day for some local races and the proposed FL. amendment on Marijuana.
    As bad as Trump is, he is not a proven liar, is not a proven thief, has not been proven to be corrupt, has not destroyed evidence, has not been proven to be responsible for the deaths of Americans. Can't say any of that for the Hilderbeast

    Not voting for Trump is a vote of Hilderbeast. Shame on you for not voting.
    If you are not part of the solution, YOU are the problem.

    Where the people fear the government you have tyranny. Where the government fears the people you have liberty.

    Starting a defense of a candidate by saying as bad as he/she is says a lot about the quality of the person running. After 40 years of voting I feel no shame for sitting this one out, as a matter of fact there are only two people in this world who can make me feel shame, my 90 year old parents and neither of them have ever done that.

    I have heard the beast say not voting is a vote for Trump...apparently both sides think they are losing.

    The only thing necessary for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.

    When Hilderbeast decimates the Supreme Court for the next 40 years with liberal BS, people like you will be to blame.

    DavidK is correct to a point. There are many people that are just disgusted with both candidates and are deciding to sit this one out. But imagine if EVERYONE eligible to vote... would vote? What would REALLY be the outcome?
