Election Day. Yay.

I get so incredibly discouraged whenever politics comes up in any of my friends' groups. It seems like 87% of my friends are all on the other side of the political fence, and while I think the diversity in my friends is great and helps keep me (mostly) sane and reasonable, I can't help but get the feeling that I'm terribly out-numbered, uninformed, unenthusiastic, and insignificant.

Most of my friends are on the same side of the political spectrum as I am--in fact, almost all of them are rather moreso. My best friend and her family--all of whom I adore--however, are... decidedly not. It can be discomfiting to be amongst people who hold pretty opposite views--I've seen it from both sides of the fence. On the other hand, I've found that it's actually helped me figure out exactly what I believe about some things.

Also, I think the number that you're looking for is 83%

Nah, I just made that statistic up on the spot.
