I've heard people say their precinct changed, etc. and become frustrated when having to locate their correct area. In this PK society, I am sure there have been changes, BUT we've known about this election for weeks. Do not wait until the morning of the election to verify your polling precinct.

The two main reasons I've heard are:
1. (For Presidential elections) The electoral college..."My state is largely democrat/republican so my vote doesn't matter."
2. "No candidate is really looking out for my interests anyway." or the more poetic "Voting is like choosing which bullet I'm getting shot with"- Andre 3000 (he has since changed his mind).

The person that I want to vote for isn't going to win so I won't waste my vote.

The number one reason I hear>>>> "My vote will not make a difference, so what's the point?"
Ugghhh, that angers me when I hear that!

Same time here. I got up an extra 15 minutes early so I could vote before I went to work.
