I like your way of looking at it jessemoon.

I feel that voting for your local representatives is more important than voting for the president. Those are the ones who make the laws (Congress), those are the ones you should write to if they do something that ticks you off. Votes mean something to them, they want to know if they have yours or not. I feel that if someone wants to be politically active, they should start at the local and state level.

I know how you feel. I haven't voted yet, because I was 18 at the time of the last election, and screwed up my absentee ballot. But I honestly didn't know who to vote for, because I didn't like either candidate. I think this year, I'll vote for someone who isn't R or D, because at least that's one vote for neither side.
