text: Lastly, the people who know that their votes are just suggestions have been turned off from voting. Maybe they know they have a candidate "who has no hope of carrying their state." I have noticed that some citizens are not qualified to vote because there are some who vote carelessly and do not carefully construct all of the things the electives are saying and how it could benefit or harm our country. However, there are some people, like the one's in the "toss-up states", who, in turn, "are more likely to pay close attention to the campaign--to really listen to the competing candidates--knowing that they are going to decide the election." Just because some people choose not to take it seriously does not mean you should take the right away from everyone.
