Or:

    Voting legitimizes whatever atrocities your government commits
    Symbolism is important: withdraw consent
    Voting is the same as not voting, but with more time wasted
    Dispiriting to other people, who have to tolerate the charade
    Not materially adding to any percentages
    Legitimizing the system by submitting to it's theatrical demands
    Thinking independently etc.

You might find Hoppe's book, http://www.amazon.com/Democracy-Economics-Politics-Monarchy-... , interesting. He claims democracy is the worst form of government, period. (The book is not easy reading and is pretty repetitive, but interesting.)
