I have heard that and when the so called person is whining about how the goverment is going I give them a nice cup of STFU!
If you are eligible to vote and don't, then you don't have jack to say!
The first thing I did when I moved to Cali was register to vote at the DMV! I voted this morning after my workout

good for you.
I wondered about my good friend AKA2D'91's opening this thread today; wondered if she was engaging in some GC voter suppression.

Naw. Not trying to suppress the vote, but I wanted to see what other EXCUSES people hear or had heard regarding why others do not vote.

MsFoxyLoxy's Election day antics
Excuse 1 for not voting: Too sleepy
Me: Shannon wake up its 5:30
My sister: I'm sleepy...
Me: Get up
My sister: Why are you waking me up?
Me: It's November 7th...it's election day we have to go and vote.
My sister: Oh...(yawns and begins to nod off again)
Me: Shannon get up.
My sister: Leave me alone...go vote for both of us.
Me: I'm calling mom if you don't get up...(a few minutes pass Shannon does not get up)
Me speaking with mom: Mom I'm leaving Shannon...the polls are closing in less than an hour and she acts like she's too sleepy to vote.
Mom on loudspeaker: Shannon get up and go vote or else...you know we vote in this family...Now I sent MsFoxyLoxy to go and pick you up...I don't want to hear another word because if you don't vote you don't have a say in your future...(Mom goes into a speech about how black people fought for the right to vote)...Shannon you have a choice are you going to get up and vote?
My sister: I'm up mom...I'm up...you know I was going to vote...I told MsFoxyLoxy77 to just give me a few more minutes of sleep...and she acts like I wasn't going to get up....
We take my car and off to the polls we go. THE END
Excuse 2: Not applying for voter's registration card
Me speaking with a friend of my 18 year old sister...(they're the same age). Me:Jay are you going to vote today?
Jay: I didn't get my voter's registration card yet.
Me: Really how long ago did you apply for it.
Jay: Apply...I didn't know you had to apply for it. I thought they just sent one to you in the mail after you turned 18.
I'm trying not to laugh and mad at the same time.
How many other 18 year olds think "they" are just supposed to send one in the mail. Is this why Florida is a "RED" state?

This is funny and sad at the same time. I guess that is why most states enacted Motor Voter laws. I THINK this question is even on your license RENEWAL form, too, right?

Greetings Sisterfriends
I had a co-worker yesterday tell me that her husband didn't register to vote because he hated to apply everytime he moved. She said this with some sick sense of pride.  Since she was registered to vote, this nut called her and told her who to vote for. I just shook my head.
