American Pixies-Register to Vote
Please. Pretty please with me on top
In my state the deadline to register is fast approaching, October 6th.
While you may be disgusted with our current system, it's the one we have to work with. Not voting does not send a message. Only by voting and having your say in the process can you hope to make the changes you want to see.
In my state it was the case for so long that convicted felons could never vote again. Many had never ever had the opportunity you have.
Remember you can vote on whichever races, ammendments etc. you choose. If you get involved in the process early enough next time you can actually effect the choices we are given in the end.
Register- then you can at least vote if you choose to.

Absolutely, and unequivocally yes. Do it before it is too late.

Not only am I registered to vote, but I'm also an election judge in my state. Yes, you may be officially afraid.

I wish I could volunteer to work at the polls. I used to help out the Kid's Vote while I was in college and had the time.

OH NO! Why should I vote for them. I'm not giving up my right to bitch! YOU are the ones that are going to be responsible.
Every time they fuck us you'll want to blame me if I vote.

Actually I do like the George Carlin logic ^^^, but we DO have to give the system every chance to work as it is suppose to.
(We can discuss how and why it's hijacking could not be stopped in another thread  )

If you don't participate in the democratic process, you hand the keys to your chains to the establishment.

But, but Lil, I'm already registered. Does this mean that in order to qualify for the special treat, I've got to find another district in which to register?

What if you live in a state that is so blantantly biased in a given direction that your vote won't mean shit?

Never underestimate the power of large numbers of protest votes.
I too, live in a state that hasn't voted my way in a generation. I still consider it my right & duty to swim upstream.
