Who's Rocking the vote???

It's election day and almost EVERYONE (well those that CAN vote) our out exercising their right.. My Facebook feed has been blowing up with status updates from everyone "ROCKING" the vote. Too bad I can't share their same passion.

I've always been intrigued by those people that are SUPER passionate about politics. Those people that say "every vote counts" or "your vote will make the difference". But in reality it doesn't! Our president isn't picked based on the popular vote it's based on the electoral votes...

So if I'm a democratic that lives in a republican state, how is my vote counting? When I lived in Miami at always came down to the wire, but in Kansas- Really?

 I'm the first to admit is sound very ignorant and I often get comments like "if you don't vote, then don't complain" well who's complaining? Certainly not me! 

 I just don't know enough about either candidate or any of the issues to make an educated informed decision. I know what I would like to see from my Presidential Candidate but wanting and getting are two TOTALLY different things. 

So I guess everyone is thinking "oh my god, she didn't vote"! Well yes I voted this year, but my vote wasn't based on any of the "issues at hand" it was solely based on which candidate seemed more personable to me. So yes I am one of those Americans that based their vote on looks alone! At least I voted people, at least I voted!

Mr. Obama got my vote- mainly because I saw this photo a few weeks ago and thought it was sweet...

Yes! I based my vote on a PICTURE!

 
It'll be interesting to see who wins this years election and how he will "PROMISE" to change our country...

Happy Voting people!
