– There’s usually a lesser of evils choice… While I might not like either candidate – typically one is significantly worse, in my view.
– I want to cancel out the vote of one specific coworker who is just wrong on most everything. He votes – so I have to vote to cancel his vote. This is a surprisingly strong motivation. Petty? Probably. But it gets me to the polls.
– I feel like if I don’t vote – I can’t gripe about the politicians that got into office despite my vote against them. I feel more vested in the system, and less hypocritical about griping about the idiots knowing I voted against them.
