I wish I could, but I'm not a citizen.

If you're not, give us a reason. Anything, like "too lazy" or "my vote won't matter" or some bullshit like that.

I always do. Maybe some people feel differently, but voting is the most American thing you can do...besides serving your country in the armed forces or public office. Not voting is a waste of your rights, and a waste of what our founding fathers fought for.

I never have nor dont think I will. Thats why I wont compain about taxes and what not. We all know damn right that politics are upper echelon and Im ok with that. I live a great life and dont think its going to change whether or not I vote.

I think this stems from not caring about politics in general. Im not really interested in it so why waste my uneducated ass vote if Im not sure/caring? Thus, I let it be and cope with it.

**edit - I meant to say dont so I bolded it**

I won't even get into it any more than that because all it will bring is people calling me a conspiracy theorist.

Plus, like Craig said, I really don't give a shit about politics...so even if it did make a difference, I don't pay enough attention to make an educated decision.
