If you're in the United States, of legal age, and registered, get your ass out there and vote today. Negative ads are designed to make you not want to vote. For the Land of the Free and the Home of Democracy, we've got a shamefully low voter turnout rate--usually around 40% for midterm elections. So be a nonconformist and take an active role in politics. Research your candidates: there are websites like OnTheIssues.org that lay out candidates' voting records and stated positions on things like gun control, military spending, gay marriage, the economy, and legalization of marijuana. Go to their websites. Check out what they all have to say. And then vote as an informed American citizen for the person you think best represents your beliefs.

And if you're of age and not registered...WTF IS WRONG WITH YOU? "I DON'T WANT JURY DUTY" AND "POLITICS MAKE MY HEAD HURT" ARE NOT ADEQUATE EXCUSES!

Ahem.

Yes. Please vote in this election, or register to do so in the next.
