I was just trying to find the bathroom, but ...

Per usual, students gave a big "**** you" to democracy yesterday by avoiding polling stations like it was their J-O-B. Wait. Seriously? We have to vote every year? That's like, waaay too much work. 

The Collegian gave us a nice little pie-chart on their front page to show just how apathetic everyone is (which we enjoy immensely, because really who wants to read an article when you can check out a pie chart). Of the 10,937 registered voters in what The Collegian calls "student dominated precincts," only 4.5 percent voted. Wait, we don't think you understand ... 95.5 percent DIDN'T vote. Which means the 494 people who did vote must have stumbled into Heritage Hall by mistake and just voted cause they felt bad.

The Collegian tells us that there were plenty of opportunities for students to vote, and no waiting in line. That didn't seem to help: "Electronic voting machines were set up along the windows in Heritage Hall, but no more than two were in use at the same time."

Maybe if we got cool purple fingers like the folks in Afghanistan.
