ARE YOU REGISTERED?

Sep 30, 2008 11:21

Hello happy happy USA people! I has a question; ARE YOU REGISTERED TO VOTE?
I just sent in my re-reg yesterday (never sure how a change of address will screw with things)
Most registration deadlines are coming up soon, as soon as Monday here!

So, if you care about the presidential election, REGISTER NAO IF YOU HAVEN'T!

If you don't care, that's okay. I kind of hate those vote places that say people should vote even if they don't know WTF is going on. Plz only vote if you have an opinion and a little sumpthin sumpthin to back it up. BUT I do think it's something of a duty to at least pay cursory attention to politics and find a candidate you think fits you well, if only for the presidential election (ideally we'd be involved in congress/state/local politics too but I admit I'm not great at that either; much harder to research).

But maybe you have an opinion, and don't like the two major candidates? VOTE ANYWAY! VOTE 3RD PARTY!!!!
Voting third party DOES count. Even if your candidate doesn't get elected it sends a message loud and clear "YOU COULD HAVE HAD THIS VOTER IF YOU WERE MORE AWESOME". And, of course, how will we ever get out of this 2 party rut if no one votes 3rd party??? OH GOD YES VOTE 3RD PARTY!!!

So yeah, if you care, and I hope you do, make sure you're registered! And vote Nov 4th! Or vote early! (I think that's what I'm gonna do)
