Tonight I Fill-Out My Ballot

I was going to yesterday evening after the Col. Applegate get-together, but it was cancelled. Seems the Colonel was summoned to La Jolla to meet with Obama and Pelosi, so the get-together is rescheduled for tonight. I plan to plumb some of the guests on local races and the array of initiatives on the California ballot - it's the longest ballot I've ever seen.

Anyway, I'm going to have to confront my ambivalence toward my presidential choice: Do I vote for Hillary just to be counted among the many, many millions of votes she will receive over Trump on the popular level, or should I stay true to the vow I made in late 2004 after Kerry lost that I would never again vote for a candidate at any level who in turn voted for the Iraq War Resolution?

Lame input here...but it's your choice. Your very personal and important choice. Vote your conscience, sir.

My vote here in Oregon also doesn't matter in terms of state electoral outcome. I'm voting Libertarian. I just can't vote for poor, terribly deficient characters like Trump and Clinton.

Heck, I don't even consider Johnson to be of good character...but he's not the slithis that those two are.

Good luck!

You know it a crazy season when you see ballot measures numbered in the 60's fighting it out in the ads.

As for presidential race. You would be voting against Trump since your vote "for" Hillary is meaningless as far go the outcome.

Hillary is in an all out confrontation with Russia, Trump wants to engage in conversation with Russia - in these dangerous times as we teeter on the edge of a war which could send us all into unimaginable chaos, powerful and over middle aged men's past sex life is not what we should be worrying about ---- but if we must Clinton's is by far the worst in that it hints of de Sade where as Trump's is what could normally be expected of a playboy in those eras.

The Clinton's own and run Haiti to such a degree that they could call in the marines, have stolen all of the billions of dollars which were donated to Haitian relief, leaving the people to drown in their tents - their farmers priced out - their resources stolen - all hope dashed. Yugoslavia was carpet bombed for 3 months solidly - Libya was Clinton's baby - her hands are dripping with blood where as Trumps are soiled by the life of a clever business opportunist.

Trump is what was once the American Dream - Clinton is what is always the absolute American nightmare.

A ridiculous choice but ----- push comes to shove - which it has - anyone but the Clinton's.
 
hooray for you - not bothering to wait and see if she has another medical emergency, thrusting Tim Kaine to the head of the ticket!

For those of us in non-competitive states, the way we've effectively been disenfranchised by our archaic electoral college liberates us to make symbolic votes. I'm doing a write-in.

Libertarian? Gary Johnson? He meets your lofty standards?
 
It's a shit choice between the inherently corrupt and an obnoxious [Unwelcome language removed] who has no idea what he is getting himself into.

Good luck. I am sitting this out.

I hope you don't vote for Obama's minion. That would only add to the "mandate" if witchy woman actually wins.

Funny that hasn't occurred to you all on your own. :0)

You have to remember Hillary is the other option...so yes...Two Former Republicans...just one of them joined the "Party of Slavery and Segregation" and married a Southern Democratic.

I like Obama, so that's a plus for Hillary. Also, you don't like Hillary which is also a plus for Hillary.

Being personally obnoxious is infinitely less dangerous than being inherently corrupt at the highest level of power.

However, I'm writing in Dennis Prager, the talk show host. He'd make a great president. Maybe if he gets some votes, he'll think about running for office.

Beat it, toad. Your foolish question was PREEMPTED by the very post to which you respond. It was answered before you asked. Go bait others. I have no interest.

Huh? Gary Johnson does not meet your lofty standards? I thought you said you were voting for him.
