Christ.  My vote doesn't matter, since I'm voting for Kerry in Texas, but I plan on going to the polls anyway on principle - IF I CAN FIGURE OUT WHERE THE DAMN THINGS ARE.  I've been attempting to call the elections administrator for twenty minutes.  Line's been busy.  Grrr.

Your vote matters. Not in terms of affecting Texas's electoral college ballot, but in terms of demonstrating the strength of disapproval against Bush in his own backyard and send a signal to Republican operatives that the direction they've gone down these last years may lead them out of power -- and if they're smart, they'll pay attention to that. If you look at the early voting (http://www.sos.state.tx.us/elections/earlyvoting/) results for the most populous counties, turnout for 2004 increased by 40% over 2000, and historically, high voter turnouts have favored the challenger, so this may mean that Texas is much more contested than the pundits and campaign managers have anticipated. Just because some partisans are vocal, it doesn't mean they're in the majority.

Besides, away from the presidential contest, there are congresspersons, state representatives, and local offices to be decided (http://www.congress.org/congressorg/e4/).
