Link of the Day [10.29.08]
Why should those old fogies in Florida decide the outcome of the election? Why living in a thoroughly blue state with no chance for your red fool of a candidate keep you from appreciating your vote? Why should we have to worry about what the two people who live in Idaho and the four people in North Dakota need in their next president? Why do we still have an electoral college?
I don’t know. I don’t really care. I live in a thoroughly blue state that will always seem to do the right thing for me to worry about. I treat voting as a civic duty. I missed out on it for ten years, and when I did get to vote, the stupid old fogies elected president fucktard.
If you want your vote to count, then you should support the national popular vote referendum or whatever they call it. Even if you don’t, you should visit the site to understand why our system may be antiquated.
