They only notice the big ones. I try to vote in all the small elections as well, because now that I am retired I see they are just as important. You are a good writer and should write a letter to the editor about this.Taborhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15257045780724471840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-917428205224357542.post-75077435560113745872013-10-26T14:23:04.530-05:002013-10-26T14:23:04.530-05:00"Shame on you" is what I tell my mother ..."Shame on you" is what I tell my mother after every vote. She's the first one to grumble about how everything is going to hell but she won't bother voting, even though we have a mail-in ballot here in Oregon.stephen Hayeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17659054447637207734noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-917428205224357542.post-69407674549436103362013-10-26T11:10:55.732-05:002013-10-26T11:10:55.732-05:00I agree!

But i think, and my husband thinks that every election is important. I don't understand the apathy either.

I had the flu once many years ago and didn't vote, but that's the only time I can recall not voting.<br /><br />I think for many it's what we have in office. They are pathetic and people just give up. Same old same old over and over and over.<br /><br />Have a terrific day. :)Sandeehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06785788498697004273noreply@blogger.com
