I have read a few posts by you on this topic, but I still don't understand what you are trying to say other than you didn't like Bush or Kerry. If I don't understand, then what chance is there that any party or candidate is going to understand what you are trying to communicate with your lack of a vote? They don't even have your posts to read.

Let's look at it from another angle. What do you hope to accomplish with your lack of voting? It sounds like you are trying to accomplish something. Is that correct? Is it that your time is more valuable than the very slight impact your vote will have? That's the slacker view. Is it that you think that if enough people don't vote, some party will come to court you? Is it something else?

I understand the idea that any single vote will have an almost negligible impact on the outcome. A write-in vote (which, by the way, should be on a list of results in your county somewhere) has even less impact. But no vote has zero impact.
