Can't. Everytime I vote, the other side wins. I am cursed. :( (Besides, I'm not registered anymore. I don't want to get called up for jury doody...................................This just keeps going on and on and on, huh? I've forgotten the whole point now...What was it?....... Oh Yeah! Vote?)
Oh son. You are just in a world of hurt now. You don't VOTE? Because you don't want to get called up for jury duty?? *head asplodes*
Prepare for a lecture the next time I see you. To make it go down easier, I will deliver it in black leather, using a whip for emphasis. But you must realize the error of your ways. Voting is the backbone of our democracy--it's the only way our leaders have accountability. People all over the world DIE for this right.
Votes for women, step in time! {Mary Poppins reference]
.........................................in black leather, using a whip for emphasis??????????? How do I sign up for THAT lecture series, Mama f*ck..I mean DUCK.....(jk) ;-P
Voting records are not the only lists used in NY State for jury duty. Names are also taken from lists of state and local taxpayers, licensed drivers, registered vehicle owners, applicants for or recipients of public assistance benefits and registered vehicle owners, applicants for or recipients of public assistance benefits and recipients of state unemployment compensation.
Wow I did not know that--that's a great little factoid to whip out.
Jury duty is awesome, I don't know why people avoid it. Yeah, you lose money and they should definitely increase the compensation but the experience is fascinating.
Well, the first reason is the most obvious. You lose money. Not everyone can afford to miss even a day's work. And even if you're on salary you wind up having to make up for the work load you missed.

VOTE for assertive, dominant women! Step in TIme!

Kidding. KIDDING!
Personally, I prefer a harem-girl outfit myself.
