TO VOTE OR NOT TO VOTE?

To vote or not to vote? That is the question. When there have been elections, I've heard many times people saying things like: "Oh, I'm not going to vote, because I don't like any of the candidates." or "I won't vote because is going to win the same party as always.". And that's a wrong decision. Both statements are understandable, because it's true that maybe there is not any candidate or party with which you agree completely, and that even if you vote, it is possible that the party that usually wins, wins again. But, anyways, this shouldn't be a reason for not voting.

First of all, if everyone thinks the same as you, that their vote is not going to make a difference and, therefore, they don't vote, then they'll be right: there's not going to be a difference and the same party will win. But is not only one person who thinks like this, there are plenty of them, so, if they all voted instead of complaining and don't wanting to know about voting, they could actually make a difference, even if it's just a little one. And the party who wins is important, but it is also important the seats on the government and the partys that take them up. Thus, maybe by voting you won't get to change the president of your country, but maybe you can change a little bit the situation in the government for a better one. 

Secondly, is very difficult to find a party that you like 100%, because all of them have good and bad things, but this is not an excuse for not voting. I'm sure there is one party you like more than the other, and if it's not like this, I guess it is because you haven't taken your time to read and get information about any of them. Sometimes you won't vote one party because you truly like their electoral programme, but to avoid that party you don't like at all winning. But at least you voted, and you took part in the election of the party that is going to rule your country for some years.

In conclusion, if you care about politics in your country, which you ought to, you should always vote. In case you are happy with the situation, to maintain it, and in case you don't, to try to change it, instead of complaining and not doing anything on that subject, expecting that it will change on its own.
