An uninformed vote based on the idea that everyone should vote is worse than a non-vote.

So you study each parties position on the issues and you make your choice and you cast your ballot and then guess what - your party promised not to increase taxes, and six months after being elected they increase taxes, then what?
I was sitting on the fence about voting because in my opinion all these guys are the same, no matter who we vote for there will be some scandal, some mismanagement, some good and bad decisions - they are all shades of grey.
If it matters I will vote conservative.
