I think not voting is an excellent choice for some folks.
Like I said in another thread, my wife defected from behind the iron curtain years ago, where almost all the people were forced to vote even if there were only communists running. They were forced to show support for the system.
Some people here probably do not approve of any of the candidates and should feel free to not have to show support for our current corrupt system. Also if a person has no idea what the issues or candidates are about, I would hope they stay away from the polls as well.
I have a feeling that most of us would not like the resulting government if we convince the 50% of people that currently don't give a damn to vote. Or not, maybe it wouldn't make any difference after all, LOL.
