Many of us have concerns for this and that, but never move to action. Voting is the very first step.

Heh, I even voted a democrat today (Justice Wells)

Shout out if you voted today.

what, voting green? voting? stating its a sham?

honestly I dont see the point...but I guess in local elections youre more likely to see an honest result?

my case is that I just dont agree with the business as usual stuff, but the "dissenting voices" will never get enough voices to get anywhere it seems

Voting Green,& voting generally. Its not that bad a sham, its that you guys have big party's and power corrupts. Also I reckon blue collars are under-represented, particularly due to the funding needed to run for government.

What do you guys think of compulsory voting?

No compulsory voting. A non vote is very telling.

I voted Green for governor, and I mostly voted Republican and various third parties for others. I voted AGAINST John Kerry (in Taxachusetts) because he was spineless in his support for the war with Iraq.

Most of my votes were protest. I'm glad I voted. I can complain now. Local is where it starts. Vote locally and you WILL see change. Yeah yeah bitch and moan power corrupts.

Heheh... Not to stir shit, but we do have the right to bitch and moan, whether we vote or not... That "constitution thing." =)

Seriously, hats off to ya if ya did vote. Someone's got to raise the flag of dissent, or complacency, depending on yer perspective...

"What do you guys think of compulsory voting?"

honestly...someone just told me that in australia if you dont vote you get fined.

dont agree with things? Vote "none of the above" but JUST VOTE!!!

and they pay attention. it gets heard.

dissent is only an option when its vocalized, no?

feelin pretty punk rock tonight.
