I sat out the 1972 election between Nixon and Humphrey. Many sat out 2000 and 2016 elections. Here are the consequences.

For example, I disagree with Harris who does not advocate for a single-payer health system and who will continue the practice of fracking, which I oppose. But I am voting for the Harris-Walz ticket because I trust them, and I know they will model a positive force for our nation and nations throughout the world.

And I agree with Kamala that “We are not going back!”

My thoughts exactly- she's not as liberal as I'd like, but I'll be damned if I'm sitting this one out. She's going to be great, and has my vote. I don't want to go back to a shithole presidency anyways. I want our country to be a leader and look forward.
