[Krimel] It really doesn't matter what gav does since he couldn't vote here if he wanted to. But, woods, if you go ahead with this plan to "protest" through inaction, what do you think the net result will be? What separates your "principled" non-vote from the non-votes of those too ignorant, stupid or drunk to exercise their franchise?
It is hypocritical to whine about the "way things are" and then fail to take the one action at your disposal to influence change. The fact is things are the way they are because citizens do not take their responsibilities seriously. Non-votes impress no one. They accomplish nothing but to strengthen the position of powerful and monied interests. If you are dissatisfied with the choices on the ballot you are always free to write in vote for RMP or Noneof Theabove. At least with a write in vote you are making a legitimate political statement.
