Vote.org is a non-profit that wants to get the U.S. to 100% voter turnout

A representative present for a roll call and explicitly abstaining is a form of voting. A citizen staying home on election day is indistinguishable from apathy.

Sounds like you've made the choice to see it as apathy.

Would submitting a signed but completely blank absentee ballot be somehow more acceptable to you?

I vote that your opinion is not one iota more valuable than that of any non-voter. People like you really should be forced to look into a mirror an hour each day.

How are you going to force Thrymyr to look in the mirror for an hour per day, if you can't even get someone out to vote? Who would be motivated enough to apply that penalty?

Non-sequitors make for poor trolling.
