I'm sick of the liberal bashing going on here.

150. I did the same, and I worked to get other Democrats to the polls.

2010 was a very important election, since state legislators elected that year would handle the re-districting after the census. Sadly, even Minnesota elected a Republican majority to both state legislative houses. In Minnesota, however, we have very good safeguards against gerrymandering, but the same is not true elsewhere in all states.

In 2012, Minnesota took the legislature back for Democrats. The Republican majority had passed some very terrible bills, including one to put a ban on same-sex marriages in the Constitution. We voted that down in 2012, and the new Democratic majority enacted marriage equality in this state.

Not voting because one does not particularly care for the President is a very stupid thing to do. It allows Republicans to gain additional seats in state and national legislatures. The Presidency is not the only office that is up for election. It is not even the most important office that is up for election. Every two years, the entire House of Representatives is up for election. How any Democrat could stay away from the polls is beyond my understanding.

2014 is just around the corner. Let's not fuck that election up. GOTV 2014!
