Vote Tomorrow

For those of you fools who I have to remind to vote…well, consider this your reminder. Tomorrow is the California Primaries…and, as always, there are some important races, propositions and measures on your ballot. I, for one, already voted so if you want me to help you and/or don’t plan to vote…call me and you can cast your vote my way.

You know, speaking of voting, I will never understand people who don’t vote. There is nothing worse than being totally apathetic to the whole democratic process. No sin worse, damnit. I mean, I’ve always said that I didn’t care if your political beliefs are different from mine (and as much as it may annoy me…I stand by that)…what gets me more upset is if you just don’t care and didn’t vote at all…because seriously, what’s the point in you existing at all and for me even talking to you? You have no opinion and no power whatsoever.

How can people not care enough to vote? Elected officials are the people in charge with crafting legislation, making decisions and voting on our behalf…and people just don’t care?!? And propositions/measures are typically things that allocate fiscal funds and determine how our money is spent…and people still don’t care?!?! How that is even possible…I will never understand. I mean, how can people be citizens, pay taxes, and then just not care who makes their decisions and how their money is spent?!?! It just doesn’t make any sense to me.

And what pisses me off more than anything else…is not only finding out these people who don’t vote…but then to hear these same people complain…omg. Listen, if you don’t vote…you have no right to complain. There is no excuse for not voting…because if you don’t vote, you have no opinion…so, sit down and shut up. Period. End of story. You want an opinion? Go out and vote tomorrow. Damnit.
