i can understand why people feel that federal elected office and the election thereto are corruptible, and i can see the logic behind staying home.
but please don’t.
because the other thing about not voting is that it allows people who are interested in taking over the judiciary on the state and local levels to just waltz right into office. allowing that to happen means that it’s more likely that we see draconian state or local laws that govern abortion or same sex marriage or taxes or whatever else people feel strongly about.
now fill out that ballot and get it in the mail. the “down ballot” races are highly important.
