this is not a bashing discussion, I just want to see your views and everyone's opinion about there own reasons, i don't care about rude comments to others this is not what this is about. now to answer my own question.... no I did not vote because I was very undecided, it's a big decision and can be scary, what if you vote and it's the wrong person etc... but besides all of that if i were to vote i didn't have a ride.

I started to vote when I was 18 (the exact age for someone to vote) I decided to register to vote. I believe that we can practice our freedom by casting our vote. And as a teacher it is a must to vote because here in our country teachers are responsible for watching and facilitationg people that are voting. Furthermore, if you vote, you can feel that you are really a citizen of the country where you belong.Happy Mylotting!

I voted because despite knowing which way our state would go anyway on the President, there were a few propositions I cared about. Despite that proposition 8 didn't go the way I wanted it to (the gay marriage one for those of you who don't live in California), I'm still glad I went out and voted. I'm even thinking about attending one of the protests if they'll have one closer to my home.

I have not voted because I am not a US citizen yet. But if I were, I would vote. I am sure that a vote from me is truly important and it is where I can speak my voice through voting the right person for the position.

No, I did not. I am just too young, but my older brother voted for me.

I did vote because I had a clear choice to make. I think it is very considerate of you to think about your own vote the way you did. I think it is a good decision not to vote if you don't truly believe in one candidate.
