I Am Not Voting

I know that there are many people who will judge me if I ever admit to them that I'm not voting. I once told my friend and her face looked as if her favorite whale died. She told me that she understands I have the right to not vote but that I shouldn't exercise that right. But I can't stand Hillary and I don't want Trump to be the face of this country. So if I don't agree with either of them, why would I vote? I don't want to regret anything so I'm choosing to stay out of it. I don't care if people guilt me by telling me that people hundreds of years ago people died for this right. Back then, they had better candidates. Since I live with my parents, I'll have to lie to them and tell them what they want to hear. But if they force me towards voting with them, I'll either leave it blank or add in my personal choice for president- Kiefer Sutherland! :)

What do you think about any of the 3rd party candidates like Gary Johnson or Jill Stein?

If I had to choose between them, probably Gary Johnson but there's even things he stands for that I don't agree with. That's the problem. Who knows if I'll [i]ever[/i] vote because I have a feeling there will be no candidate that I will 100% agree with. That if someone makes it, there could be benefits but also bad consequences. That's why voting should be a personal decision. Nothing you should have to explain so explicitly to everyone.

@JewStar4Life: That makes sense. No one should force you to vote if you don't want to. Those soldiers also died so that you could have the right to not vote too lol
