I'm one of the million who didn't vote. Well, technically, I declined my ballot. Usually I don't vote but the polling station was across the street and it was a nice evening for a stroll so I popped into the school. Thankfully there wasn't a line. Had there been a line, I would have turned around and headed home to shine my boots.
I stood there while the scrutineer did his thing and when he passed me the ballot I said, "No thanks, I decline." He had a shocked look on his face; I shrugged and left.
