If you don't vote you're assenting to whatever the majority decides.

Let's be honest, the majority don't get to decide around these parts

Then in some cases (the Republicans have won the national popular vote once in my lifetime, I'm almost 30) you're assenting to whatever the minority decides, which is even worse

So do what you can to prevent as much wrongness as you can.
