still no power to key

so i had posted about 3 weeks ago about the problem i'm having and i still havnt figured it out yet. pretty much im not getting power to the ignition and im not sure why, unless there is another ground that i dont know the location of, all my grounds test fine, get the same amount of voltage from battery to strut tower as well as strut tower to engine, i've replaced the ignition thinking that was the problem, but still nothing. i know my battery was low on voltage so i jumped it, but i still didn't have any power, for a little the voltage acutally moved, but after that one time it didn't do it any more. i have aftermarket switches that run directly to battery and they work fine so i know my battery isn't the problem. i have no idea what to test next, when i get home after work i was going to disconnect my battery and let the car sit for a while and see if anything changes, but i have a feeling that nothing will change. before the car stopped working completely when i would go to start there would be a little hesitation and then it would turn over very weak and get stronger so i dont know if it could be a starter issue, but the starter is only 5 years old if not younger so i dont think that could be it. well any other info you guys need let me know, any help would be great even if it is something i've already checked that you might think would be the problem let me know, thanks
