Title: A rant on Voter Apathy
Post by: Tarheel on November 08, 2007, 01:38:55 PM
We had an election here in Kennesaw, Georgia this past Tuesday but you could not tell it by the number of voters who showed up at the polls.  Now I realize that it was ONLY for mayor and two At Large Town Council posts but what the fuck?  Where the fuck was everybody?  In the history of this great nation patriotic men have fought and died for the right and priviledge to vote!  Kennesaw has a population of somewhere around 25,000 folk eligible to vote (notwithstanding the local Democrats desire to let illegal aliens with any fucking form of ID vote...up to and including "his word that he really lives here and is a citizen") and out of that relatively small population less than 1,800 people voted.  That is a damn shame!  Even in the most recent presidential election we only had a turnout of about 50 percent of eligible voters which is still fucking pathetic! As a friend of mine pointed out recently I am just a fucking white man who loves what used to be his country enough to get my arse to the polls and vote.  And even take the fucking time to read up on who was running and what they stand for and against.  Voting is a fucking important right and priviledge in this nation (of course I believe that only tax PAYERS should vote but what the fuck do I know!).

So let it be written...so let it be done.

So ends today's rant... :mad:

He would love to call you something like "infidel", but he is out of the country right now. 

That being the case.....


Philistine!

You got too many mexicans down there. move on up here to Woodstock, but leave the mexicants down there. We have great voter turnout here.And they check your ID. Besides, Prattville would kick N. Cobb's ass.
