I live in a deep red state. Not a swing state. Not a questionable state. A state where registered red voters outnumber blue voters 2-1.
I'm not saying that this applies to everyone but even if blue had an excellent turnout including me and reds had a bad turnout, it would still be a red win with a ratio 3-2.
I'm not voting not because I don't care, not because I don't think it's the right thing to do, not for some moral high ground, but because it actually doesn't matter. I am disenfranchised, I accept it, I make the best decisions I can knowing that.
I'm sure some will still tell me I'm wrong but I'm going to focus on my own interests and mental health.
If you are in a swing state, please vote. If not for yourself, for me. I'll consider it a favor.
(I have good reasons for living here. If you tell me I should move then why don't you move to a swing state?)
You are quite dug in on the presidential election, but do keep in mind you are usually also voting for local/county positions on that same ballot, where one vote often makes the difference and has a more immediate impact on your interests
