I've voted in every election I possibly could have since I have been legally able to vote (which adds up to a grand total of one
)

(yes, I am kidding. I vote regularly in all elections where I have a choice. If the office only has one candidate running, it gets ignored.)

Yeah, dammit, I wanted to vote
But yes, I vote... not in primaries because I'm an independent, but in every other election, I may have missed one or two local ones, but not more than a couple.

I do.
In CA we have the option to register as a "permanent absente ballott" holder for those of us who travel too much for thier jobs. So I vote at home at my leisure and either drop it in the mail or drop it all the polling place.

I've voted in every election since 1970.
I always listen to what each candidate for each office has to say ON THE ISSUES, then vote for the one who most closely represents my views.
Come hell or high water, my voice WILL be heard.

Why kidding? IMHO, if you don't you don't get to b*tch about anything.....
