In 1976 that is…
My way of getting you motivated to vote for whoever you please… but vote. I didn’t vote until 1984, as I was pretty sure it didn’t matter. It does and I’m pissed I missed my chance in ’76 and ’80 to do my thing as an American. Oh, and never mind the man behind the curtain… 😀
What’s election day without some Alice Cooper? Nothing, that’s what.

If I was American and old enough, i’d be voting for sure 🙂
There’s always the English elections sometime soon…
Here’s hoping whoever gets into power does a good job!
Agreed Dan. I think no matter who wins, change is bound to happen as we “colonists” have had enough of this stuff. Thanks for the comment!

I’ve made the observation in my own blog that this is the first year I remember where no matter who wins, it will be a clear improvement over the current regime. I do have a preference myself, but I think your message of “GO VOTE!” is more important today.
Lena and I voted a week ago last Thursday and it was a very liberating experience. We no longer felt obligated to pay ANY attention to anyone’s political ads. Aaahhhh…
Yep… just vote. And yes, we all have our preferences, but ANYONE would be better then what we’ve had for 8 years… ugh…
I think Ronald McDonald would even be better…
It helps to know who you’re voting for. Also, if none of the candidates who seem like they could possibly win seem good to you, voting for someone who couldn’t win indicates your discontent. The more people who do that, the more likely we are to get a viable third option. It may not be much of a chance, but it’s better than the nothing if you don’t vote at all.
Unfortunately, voting for someone who couldn’t win due to one’s discontent with the two-party system is how we ended up with Trump in the White House. I’m not a fan of Biden, but there was no way in hell I was going to let Trump win a second term. I won’t get too deep into politics here as that’s not what “1977” is about. Suffice to say, I too am frustrated with our two-party system, but it’s what we have for now. But, that can (and will) change at some point.
