    Doesn't surprise me either and I live in Minnesota, a state with one of the highest voter turnouts in the nation.

    Will be interesting for sure to see how 9% of America voted for Trump and the other 91% couldn't stop him.

    Shaming people for not voting during the primary elections is bogus.

    When it was time for WA state's primary election. The only Republican still running was Trump. And the only 2 Dems running were Clinton and Sanders.

    I wasn't going to waste a stamp on an election that was already decided, so I didn't vote.

    Is that all that was on your ballot up in WA? No state issues, nothing else?

    Nothing else on the primary ballot.

    A ballot with other state issues arrived this past week.

    Interesting. I live in WA from around '90 to '94 and don't remember ballots being that way. Must be all that paper they like to use up there!

    Only 9% ... and you vote for your party leaders. So how'd did these two knuckleheads get the nod. I still think a trump presidency would be a hoot...

    Haha! I love George. And what he says is hard to argue against. I vote anyway because I can and because I like to throw my 2 cents out there even if it probably doesn't mean a hill of beans.

    Thankfully I got lucky and was born north of the border in the great white north ... as bad as politics are here ... these 2 knuckleheads likely never rise to party leadership in Canada...that's why I think it'd be a hoot.

    Voting is for people that fall for thinking they can change things.
