If you don't vote for governor, then please do not complain about whoever is elected.
Barbara Streisand! Just because someone doesn't vote doesn't mean that they can't gripe. You're WRONG Marple!
You act like complaining is an entitlement of voting when it isn't. I gripe as long and lound as any and I've yet to vote for anyone though I've been eligible to vote for over twenty years. I also refuse to "register" as if I were an animal.
SEC. 4. In all elections by the people the vote shall be by ballot, and the Legislature shall provide for the numbering of tickets and make such other regulations as may be necessary to detect and punish fraud and preserve the purity of the ballot box; but no law shall ever be enacted requiring a registration of the voters of this State.
My how times have changed...
Here is a clue...none have been worthy of my vote. I guess you're content voting for the lesser of two evils. You standing on the corner of Compromised Principles and Party Ave. too?

Well, brag about not voting if you like. It is your right.

However, I do not understand why you think anyone should pay attention to your opinion. Given the information you just provided, I certainly won't.

In my opinion, you DO vote for the lesser of two evils. It is called incrementalism, and it allows the electorate WHO PARTICIPATE to gradually move the officials in the direction they desire.

Sit on the sidelines if you wish. I will no longer pay attention to your opinion, since you don't participate in the election process.
