I think this sums up the bigger reason I've lost interest in this election. It's been happening over time, and we all know it has, but this article sums it up for me. Sure, my candidate didn't make it, and I'm not voting for the two main candidates, but that isn't really why I've lost so much interest. The polls, news media and coverage really do spoil it for me.
