The Green Party is dying, at least here in the States. 2.7% of popular vote in 2000, less than 1% in 2004... at least thats what some random about.com article said..
As for ignoring elections; I did it in 2004... not purposely, but accidentally. I wasn't able to register in time because my application got "lost" the first time. At any rate, I feel like I'm going to get bent over either way and probably wouldn't have voted...
