How Are We Voting in '08?

[TastyWheat]

This late in the game we can only hope for a symbolic victory with one of the 3rd parties.

 

[Paul Revered]

Obama is not a choice for me; and the GOP needs to be sent a message. A Conservative does not reward bad behavior. I cannot vote for McCain. A third party win is my best hope at this time. LP, or CP, I don't completely agree with either. For now I will follow the stampede to Barr.

 

[libertarian4321]

I don't know yet- I'm not happy with any of the candidates, including Barr (Baldwin won't even be on the ballot in Texas).

Since I didn't know, and I was the 100th vote, I put down "Mckinney" so she would have 1%

Of course, I'm not really going to vote for her.

 

[nobody's_hero]

I chose Barr because Ron Paul didn't show up (which will probably happen in November).

I have been saying for quite a while now that I would Write-in Ron Paul.

Perhaps I've been having a change of heart, but I intend to make it explicitly clear to Bob Barr that he owes Ron Paul one hell of a thank you for getting me to break the chains of the Democratic-Republican binopoly.

 

[LABELtheTRAITOR]

i'm leaning towards Barr, as an agnostic, i couldn't in clear conscience vote Constitution Party... or unless the good doctor pulls something off in sept and gets on the ballot.

 

[hillbilly123069]

with Our current selection of candidates,

you would think that most in this country want 1!

what are you for, a dictatorship?

 

[Paul Revered]

bump

 

[SovereignMN]

Chuck Baldwin without hesitation.

 

[Joseph Hart]

Other, Write in.

Constitution Party

I think a lot of Ron Paul supporters are supporting Chuck Baldwin because he's from the CONSTITUTION Party and Ron Paul always talks about the CONSTITUTION. But the fact is that the Constitution Party really has some terrible stances on social freedoms like gambling and freedom of religion. I think just the word CONSTITUTION is what makes a lot of supporters go towards them, not the party's actual beliefs.

I personally will be voting for Bob Barr because I'd like someone to make enough of a splash, at least 5-10%, to garner attention towards the ideas of liberty, like Dr. Paul did. He didn't win, but a lot of people learned the ideas. That's what Barr could do. Even given Barr's problems, Baldwin is not going to attract any attention because he's got no profile.

I'm going up to my electronic voting machine, taking a big thick black marker, and writing Ron Paul across the screen!!

Not really, but I am writing him in.

 

[newyearsrevolution08]

hey look another "lets group together" poll, straight from the grassroots lol.....

go figure

 

[josephadel_3]

I just noticed today that Ron Paul finally officially suspended his campaign. Since this is the case, I will not be writing his name in. Instead, I'll vote for Barr.

I find it somewhat interesting to compare the way this poll is going to the one that's been languishing over in the "Other Presidential Candidates" subforum for several weeks now:

As a Barr supporter I like the results of the one here on the grassroots forum more.



Enjoy.

To be fair, that one was made before Ron Paul officially dropped out, which I think had a pretty big effect.

Republican Party (McCain) 4 2.76%

i just threw up in my mouth a little

 

[DrCap]

I will still write in RP... in illinois obama will cloud out everyone else anyway.

Though for the congressional seat I'll be voting Democrat (though I don't know who that person is) 'cause I'd rather see a big loser in office than an incumbent Republikan fake.

Libertarian Party (Barr)  77  	50.33%

I feel a bit the same way... I feel like we have been infiltrated by neocons.

Quit with the bullshit, if you'd be so kind.
