apharI know many people are used to voting for the lesser of the two evils, but this year find both major party candidates so repulsive and offensive that they do not want to vote at all.
Please reconsider!
Not voting ensures that the next time around the candidates will be just as bad.
Go and vote - for some minor guy you have never heard about before.
He will not win, but your vote this November will make the major party candidates shift their positions in 4 years to capture your vote. Yes, this is precisely how it works, and this is the only way you can really influence the politics.
Repeat:

- DO cast your vote!
- do NOT vote for a major party candidate you don't like!
