If you live in any of the following states, go out and vote this November or I will find you and slap your stupid ass face:

Florida (obviously)
Iowa
Maine
Minnesota
Nevada
New Hampshire
New Mexico
Ohio
Oregon
Wisconsin

In the 2000 election, neither candidate won over 50% in any of those states. Here are the states where the winner got under 52% of the vote:

Arizona
Arkansas
Colorado
Michigan
Missouri
Pennsylvania
Tennessee
Vermont
Washington
West Virginia

In these states, you can put up a fight and not feel like it's a waste of time. I personally don't care who you vote for since my life does not hang in the balance with this election. I'm not going to bother with the "Nader Factor". I will note that 49% of the voting age population (VAP) voted in 1996 and 51.2% voted in 2000. This means that 2.2% more of the VAP came out in 2000. I'd be curious to see which age group (if it was just one) showed up in larger numbers for 2000. Anyhow, it's strange that Bill Clinton got elected in 1992 with 55% of the VAP coming out, but only 49% came in 1996. Maybe it was some sort of "Perot Factor", or people just liked Bill Clinton so much at first. Either way, I predict a 56% voter turnout for the 2004 Presidential Election.
