Voting for impersonal parties and their programmes is a false substitute for the only true way to elect people's representatives: voting by an actual person for an actual candidate.
Aleksandr Solzhenitsyn

Voting against the resolution authorizing the use of military force in Iraq was one of my proudest moments as a senator. It is long past time to close this tragic chapter in American history.
Barbara Boxer
Image
Voting is merely a labor-saving device for ascertaining on which side force lies and bowing to the inevitable... It is neither more nor less than a paper representative of the bayonet, the bully, and the bullet.
Benjamin Tucker
Image
Voting is a very scary arena to be in, but I do vote. I go in there and pull the lever. It's kind of like pulling the lever and watching the trap door fall out from beneath you. Why should we trust any of these people? None of them ever deliver on anything. It's always disappointing.
Mel Gibson

Voting is fundamental in our democracy. It has yielded enormous returns.
Arlen Specter

Voting is the least arduous of a citizen's duties. He has the prior and harder duty of making up his mind.

Voting rights expert and legal scholar Pam Karlan reports that as of 2004, there were more black men disenfranchised than in 1870, the year the Fifteenth Amendment was ratified prohibiting laws that deny the right to vote on the basis of race.
Michelle Alexander

Voting wouldn't excite me unless it included electing the directors of the big banks and corporations, who make the real decisions that affect our lives. It's hard to get excited about the trained seals in Washington.
Robert Anton Wilson

Voting is a right best exercised by people who have taken time to learn about the issues.
Tony Snow

Voting to go on strike is not a decision working people take lightly and is always accompanied by a strong sense of injustice at work. The impact of losing a day's pay is significant, not least for those in the lowest paid jobs who are already on the tightest budgets.
Frances O'Grady

Voting is the foundational act that breathes life into the principle of the consent of the governed.
DeForest Soaries

Voting is a Constitutional right. Absent any evidence of fraud, all Americans have a protected right to vote, be they rich or poor, black, Hispanic or white, people who live in a big city or in remote rural areas.
Juan Williams

Voting is the first duty of democracy.
Lyndon B. Johnson

Voting really doesn't mean anything. I wish I could say something different, but I think it's kind of a sham.
Aaron McGruder
Image
Voting is a civic sacrament.
Theodore Hesburgh
Image
Voting for the lesser of two evils is voting for your own enslavement.
Gerald Celente
Image
Voting is completely important. People in America think democracy is a given. I think of it as an ecosystem, and what gets in the way of it is politicians and apathy.
Henry Rollins
Image
Voting is like alchemy - taking an abstract value and breathing life into it.
Sharon Salzberg
Image
Voting is actually an exercise in futility and only used to convey false credibility to a controlled political system totally divorced from the people
Ron Holland
Image
Voting is not an act of political freedom. It is an act of political conformity. Those who refuse to vote are not expressing silence. They are screaming in the politician's ear: 'You do not represent me. This is not a process in which my voice matters. I do not believe you.'
Wendy McElroy
Image
Voting for New Labour is like helping an old lady across the road while screaming 'Get a move on!' Even the Tories, who you could once rely on to be completely heartless are pretending to care.
Boy George

Voting is a civic sacrament - the highest responsibility we have as Americans.
Christine Pelosi
Image
Voting is one of the few things where boycotting in protest clearly makes the problem worse rather than better.
Jane Bowles

Voting for [Donald] Trump Is Voting Against Ourselves.
