That is the number of votes that decided the 2000 election. Today I've seen on a CafeMom poll that over 1,500 members are choosing not to vote.

We right here, this relatively small community, have the power, numbers and ability to decide this election.

WHY are you choosing not to vote?

I am stumped, disappointed, angry, incredulous, dumbfounded and enraged.

You have children, each and every one of you.

Do you not care what this country will be like for them for the next 4 years?

Just freaking do it!!!

 

Oh and if you believe it matters please vote this popular. That is all, carry on.

 

 p.s. I'm stealing this from my friend Kater, a wickedly smart and funny woman. Watch it.

I will never understand not voting. If you don't vote, you are silencing your voice.

I already voted so I can stay home on Nov. 4th and watch MSNBC.  Because I am a nerd.

Great post.  I voted last weekend.  I stood in line for an hour, but I would have stood in line for much longer if I needed to.    Get out and vote people!!!!!!!!!

Great post!  I have no respect for those who don't care enough about this country to simply vote.  Even if I disagree with you, I hope that you vote because this is  YOUR country and your voice deserves to be heard!  Thanks for posting this!
