Default One vote does not make a difference

One vote DOES NOT make a difference, unless an election comes down to a tie, or one vote away from a tie.

I need someone to explain to me how one vote makes a difference...

These are the facts:
* If anyone asks me i say that i vote, but im lying, i do not
* I refuse to tell anyone who to vote for or talk about politics. I feel that everyone is just making crap up without evidence, just like in this forum.
So my opinion about politics or voting has no effect on anyone.
* if anyone asks me about politics or who i'll vote for, i just ignore them or change the subject.

So now i need someone to explain to me how one vote does make a difference, if an election isn't tied, or one candidate isn't one vote ahead or behind the other.

One dollar doesn't make a difference either. That's why you try to get as many as you can.

If I "don't like" either candidate I WILL NOT VOTE.

Some say "it's my duty to vote".

To them I say "Bullsh!t"

I have never nor will I ever Vote for someone I don't like, I don't want them on my conscience.

That's why I hope Ron Paul keeps running as an independent.

Dead heat: Obama and Clinton split the Syracuse vote 50-50

Posted by Mike McAndrew
February 07, 2008 9:58AM


In the city of Syracuse, the strangest thing happened in Tuesday's Democratic presidential primary.

Sen. Hillary Clinton and Sen. Barack Obama received the exact same number of votes, according to unofficial Board of Election results.

Clinton: 6,001.

Obama: 6,001.

"Wow, that is odd," said Jay Biba, Clinton's Central New York campaign coordinator. "I never heard of that in my life."

Starting with all who came here from England ... and all the immigrants from all countries who have made this country great ... and all who have perished in wars fighting in and for this country. We vote because of them and out of respect for our democracy. People who make no attempt to vote are ignorant and disrespectfull to their community, state and country.

Keegs ... perhaps if you were born in China, Syria, North Korea or better yet Dafur you would better respect that you have the right and obligation to vote ... many have died for what others like you take for granted.
