CAN you vote? - Pokemon Forum

Yes, with the elections coming up, and all these questions about "Who should be president?" I thought I should ask this. CAN you vote? Are you a registered voter, of the USA, or any country? Please don't say who you'd vote for, just say if you can vote.

I for one can't. I have to wait 3 elections, I believe, to be a voter.

I know most of the members are under 18, but I thought this would be an interesting question.

Yes I can, and I already have :). Since I am twenty-five last time was my first time voting for a president..not that it did any good -.-

Seawolf · #3 10-30-2008, 11:35 PM

I can.

My ballot is sitting in the kitchen, as a matter of fact.

I'm 13, but I would vote if I could.

I turned 18 just in time to vote for the Aussie Prime Minister last year. :] But voting is mandatory here, so yeah.

Yeah, I'm with you on that one. The next election is (probably) going to be when I'm 17, and I'm just upset I'd be so close to voting, but I have to wait another 4 years.

I can vote. Already did.

Woodchuck · #8 10-31-2008, 01:23 AM

Not yet, but by the next presidential election, I'll be nineteen. So, uh, yay. I guess.

Next presidential election I can vote.

I can't wait!

Until I have a good reason to vote, I'm not wasting my time with it. There, I said it.

The Jr Trainer · #11 10-31-2008, 02:53 AM

No, but I'm trying to get my sister to vote for who I want to vote for. :[

As my history teacher says, "Don't complain about who wins if you don't take the time to vote." :x

Oh also, I can't vote till like... *adds* 2016. x_x

Especially when you can go none of the above!

EmBreon · #15 10-31-2008, 05:09 AM

Eh, yes. But I don't really care enough about the election to vote.

I fail as a citizen.
