Why or Why Not?

If not what would it take to get you to vote?

 Yes, I do. The only time I haven't voted is when I had a family emergency.

I used to never bother, but as I've gotten older and I pay attention to more things I definitely make it a point to always vote.  I think when I was younger I worried that I wasn't informed enough to make decisions so I think that's the key to getting more people to vote, just sharing information so they feel informed and empowered.

Yes.
Even though half the time my dh and I cancel each other out. lol

But yes, I vote because I like to *think* my vote counts.

Yes, I absolutely vote, but I must admit that I used to look at local elections as less interesting and less important than state and federal elections. Over the years, I've come to understand the importance of taking local elections -- and what we do in our own back yard --  very seriously.
