welcome to the world of adults.. and dirty politics. I wish that the person who received your valuable vote wins. OTHERWISE, it will be a pain in the heart.. though you will not disclose that to others. and, .. if you ask my experience. .. I have secretly wept.. for my candidate losing the elections. i was a communist in those days.. (and, even now --- but not the red-brigade that you are seeing today. ) and, the pain of wasting my vote on a candidate that could not win was very much. I think, even the loser candidate forgot about this, but, since then, I am not going near the elections ..

just a feeling... I think, mid-term elections are sure to knock at us, within the next 4 months... at the center. I don't think MANMOHAN SINGH government can survive all the crisis happening with MAOISTS killing CRPF and innocent citizens. so, another good chance for you to vote;.

Most of the people will not support my opinion. I had several occasions of voting. But I never cast my vote. I feel some kind of slavary if I do voting. I know it is my right and I should utilise my franchise. But I have never supported any of the political parties or any leaders in power. Many of my frineds advised that I should vote. But once I tried, it and it was only to know how the authorities have prepared the formalities. Even though I cast my vote that day, I made it null (void) by making more seals on the same sheet. The reason may be little possessive so that I am not going in detail. But one thing is sure that I will not vote for any of the general elections. It is my pledge and determination. However, hope you will get a stable and corruption free government now. Best regards, Thank-s
