NO, not voting is a protest VOTE and a way of telling your party,I do not agree with the way you governed.
If this means you will “have the party you do not wish to govern” than so be it.

Abstaining because of unfulfilled promises (how many unfulfilled promises were made to me during my lifetime my friend but I do not have any chips on my shoulder because of them, I just went on with my life not relying on others to get what I wished) – and the new public transport system is not yet 100% efficient is a childish grievance. Surely there are more important issues that one should think about seriously.

Would you say let any of those Marsaxlokk campers decide what to wear for the next five years or so?

So why let the like of them decide how you and your loved ones will live? It is not only immature but simply stupid.

If you have grievances then speak up, vote and make it count. Not voting is simply a cowardly act based on the fear of voting for the wrong side.

Then don’t vote for the unworthy candidate. It is a numeric impossibility for all candidates to be worthy ones, but it is up to the electorate to decide who is worthy or not. Sometimes they get it wrong, as evidenced by the behaviour of parliamentarians on both sides of the house.

But not voting for a party or for an ideal is ridiculous just because you do not feel some of the candidates are up for the job.

Make your vote count and use it wisely to ensure that as far as possible worthy people are elected. A positive statement is always better than an negative one.

A rather immature statement, but a statement nonetheless.

Don’t rush, jae. Read this from MaltaToday:

“Although Labour is currently leading the PN, only 24% of Gozitans think that the PL has the best policies for Gozo. On the other hand, 32% think that the PN has the best policies for the small island.

Only 70% of the PL’s current voters think that the party of their choice has the best policies for Gozo. Curiously, 2% of PL voters admit that the PN has the best policies….”

Trid tara biex temmen.

I don’t agree with Dr.Albert Fenech with the whole “Not voting…is not a mature way…” But I have to say, that he is just what the PN need right now. The fact that he is a breath of fresh air and charismatic helps a lot in Politics. If only some certain others would make way for people like Dr. Fenech.

Last election I voted PN, I would rather abstein than vote Labour. Some of us are just too hurt by unfulfilled promises, not to mention unworthy people like Manuel Delia (Arriva Shambles) are on the ticket.
