For Those of You May Be Thinking of Not Voting...

Not much point in me voting. Utah has six Electoral Votes this year, and the states pretty much go all-or-nothing, and Utah is solidly Republican. If I want Romney I win automatically, because Utah will go Republican. If I want Obama I lose automatically, because Utah will go Republican. If I write in someone else I not only lose, I get accused of stealing votes from one candidate or the other. What's the point?

Don't get me wrong, though. That won't stop me.
