There are other things on the ballot, and also, it's your right. That said, I totally wimped out of voting last election cycle because it was too complicated (shamefully) so I understand, and Buzzfeed is silly.<br /><br />ALSO, yes to diet coke. And all the other things. And for legalizing marijuana! Totally voted for that. (It's silly it's illegal....with you there!) <br /><br />(Even though I have never/will never use it.)<br /><br />The end of my long, long comment.

Had you voted for Romney, or had you voted for Obama, I'm sorry to say that it would not have made a difference. <br /><br />People are OMGVOTING in election season, but I feel like it's a status symbol to vote more than anything. And in most states, your vote doesn't really do all that much. I registered to vote in California (SHH!), and either way my vote wouldn't have done anything. It's okay. Next week, people will move onto something else. :)Jenniehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06532899712985168672noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22472965.post-85541136238673324772012-11-07T08:02:37.438-07:002012-11-07T08:02:37.438-07:00I am from Idaho so at the last election when I was...I am from Idaho so at the last election when I was 21, I registered at the polls - because Idaho is awesome like that. Then I moved to Utah. I registered to vote when I got my Utah's driver's license so I didn't think about registering this go 'round. Then... I realized I had since moved. You STILL have to register to vote a month in advance with a change of address. I was one day late. Frustrating. So, I faked it. I went back to the polling place of my old residence (less than a mile from where I live now) and voted.<br /><br />This whole registering a month before the election is lame. They should make it easier for people to vote if they want a good turnout. Oh well. Long live Idaho!Samanthahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01395905037088285033noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22472965.post-16499491440103178472012-11-07T07:51:41.187-07:002012-11-07T07:51:41.187-07:00No worries, we didn't get to vote either.
