I will not be voting, because it is a waste of money. To leave work and vote, assuming it takes one hour, would cost me $11.00, plus gasoline, wear and tear on the car, dealing with groups of people, aggravation, etc. I choose to spend my money on things that I need or enjoy. I do not enjoy wasting my effort and registering for jury duty (the potential for several days of lost wages). Instead, I will use that money to purchase some pornography and enjoy my evening.
Even assuming my vote could possibly make a difference in a group of millions of people, it does not matter to me who wins the election.
