i always wondered what the percentage was for mac users.

el chupacabra · Apr 25, 2004, 01:07 AM

I vote for the president not the party so I guess I'm in between. Whoever's better.

JHromadka · Apr 25, 2004, 01:15 AM

Where's the party-agnostic option? I vote for whom I feel is best suited for the job.

oVeRmInD911 · Apr 25, 2004, 01:20 AM

I'm gonna bet that there's more democrats.

dillerX · Apr 25, 2004, 01:43 AM

It won't be long, and the Democrats will out number the Repulicans 3 to 1 on this board. It's just that they are all out partying right now.

<--- Democrat.

phoenixboy · Apr 25, 2004, 02:10 AM

last time i voted (in 96), i voted for nader.

Jaey · Apr 25, 2004, 02:12 AM

<---- Too young to vote, but a Democrat nonetheless

RAzaRazor · Apr 25, 2004, 02:48 AM

<-- Reformed Republican, which is a nice way of saying "Fuc& the Republicans, I switched and am now a Democrat."

Mitser · Apr 25, 2004, 03:08 AM

I am just getting my feet wet as this will be my first year voting. I really do not follow along specific party lines (voted other party in poll) but I guess i would lean more to the democratic side. Depends on who I think is best for the job I guess.

My voter registration card says Socialist. I voted for Nader last time. This time I will Vote for Kerry. I have also volunteered to help shuttle people from the inner city to polling places. Bush must go..

MindFad · Apr 25, 2004, 03:28 AM

Independent. But I think they're calling that something else, now.

voyageur · Apr 25, 2004, 09:20 AM

In my heart, I'm Green Party. As a pragmatist, I usually vote the least of all evils who still has a chance to win.

What did you do, write him in? Nader wasn't a candidate in 1996.

Frisbee · Apr 25, 2004, 10:41 AM

If I was old enough to vote, I'd vote for whoever would get Bush out of office, within reason.

SimeyTheLimey · Apr 25, 2004, 10:48 AM

Where? He wasn't on the ballot where I voted.

BTW, I thought you claimed to be German? From Mannheim, as I recall.

Wow! You were one of the 28,723 who voted for Nader out of 685.128 ballots cast in Wisconsin. A true fringe vote!
Link

BTW, I voted in Virginia that year. He wasn't on the ballot there and apparently, not one person wrote him in.

P.S. Take a look at Delaware. 18 votes! Well on his way to the White House.

<--- There isn't much of a difference between the Dems and the Reps.(I clicked other party)

BTW, Wrong Forum.

ghost_flash · Apr 25, 2004, 11:31 AM

<---- Republican and I have also volunteered to "help" bus people from *two* very large retirement homes to go and vote. We call it "Easy-Listening, the Vote!".

oh, so that's what happened during the last election...you don't live in florida by any chance?

TheMosco · Apr 25, 2004, 11:49 AM

Voting for Kerry in my first election this november. Probably going to be doing an absentee ballet because there is no way I could make it home just to vote.

Jaey · Apr 25, 2004, 12:02 PM

I'm actually a communist, but don't tell anyone

MacGorilla · Apr 25, 2004, 12:40 PM

I'm taking a ba'ath.

cpt kangarooski · Apr 25, 2004, 12:57 PM

Independent, and appalled that there's no appropriate option in the poll.

ghost_flash · Apr 25, 2004, 01:08 PM

The poll is appropriate as it deals with the United States Elections, and the main two categories are the only ones that count along with OTHER, which can stand for any of the minoritie groups. Independent, Green, Libertarian, etc.

It works. Honestly the rest of you don't count here anyway. Truth.

I would hope so... I've always thought the Log Cabin Republicans had to be pretty conflicted people.

Canadian political parties have always been an enigma to me...

Bloc Qu�b�cois is Federal.. that's what I'd vote because it's the only party that represents our province well...

provincial, I would have voted for Union des forces progressistes/socialistes...

but probably I'll vote for the Parti Qu�b�cois because they're going more left and unlike the UFP, they have a chance to win. I don't want another 5 years with a neo-liberal ******** at the head of the province.

So will you be bribing with cigarettes or food?

I have a better plan. Let's bus Socialists to Canada. Too cold for you? We'll ship you to Cuba instead. Ain't freedom of choice grand

Well you thought wrong.

Identity =/= political party preference.

I don't know who you are talking about. Let's ask Mondale and Dukakis, they might know.

olePigeon · Apr 25, 2004, 06:23 PM

I'm registered Monarchy, mostly because no other party fit me. I was gonna vote Independent, but I didn't want people think I'm a Republian.

wdlove · Apr 25, 2004, 07:32 PM

I'm a proud to be a Republican. I want to see the United States of America remain strong, dependent on no foreign government or entity. To use merit principle.

You didn't finish. At the expense of who or what?

cpt kangarooski · Apr 25, 2004, 07:50 PM

ghost_flash--

OTHER, which can stand for any of the minoritie groups. Independent, Green, Libertarian, etc.

The poll says 'other party,' not 'other.' Independents are not members of any party, hence that option doesn't apply.
