If Sanders is not the nominee, I officially encourage all of you to vote

[hootinholler]

The Straight Democratic Ticket!

[RandySF]

1. Most states do not allow one to punch a straight party line.

Most will have to vote in each office.

[Festivito]

4. That may mean having to go down the list voting for Democrats...

without noting their names as you vote. SIMPLE!

[bvf]

5. Completely beside the point. n/t

[GeorgeGist]

21. Not with one-click, no.

I'm sure folks can figure it out.

[LyndaG]

2. Okay!

[JackInGreen]

3. *grumbles*

Ok, on board.

[PowerToThePeople]

6. I will listen to your advice

and vote for who I feel best represents me.

[peacebird]

26. Me too!

[onehandle]

7. If the Senator is the nominee I will happily vote for him. nt

[peacebird]

27. So will I!

[ismnotwasm]

8. He won't be

I'll be voting for Hillary Clintion

[Squinch]

9. Oh. That reminds me!

Can you believe it? This shit that you wrote still hasn't been taken down!

On second thought I take that big FUCK YOU back. I wouldn't fuck you even with someone else's dog's cock. You have proven yourself to be utterly and irretrievably morally repugnant. You have stooped to depths that are lower than whale shit in the fucking Marianas trench. There's a lot of pressure down there for anyone with a shred of fucking decency but once your balls are shriveled to the obvious pinhead size it affects the brain and there's little left than to attempt to smear the shit on the walls when it didn't stick whilst you were flinging it.

I'm really hoping that just means that the admins are on a holiday vacation, and not that they are giving it a pass. Because it's really insane.

[hootinholler]

10. Are you jealous?

Feeling left out?

At least you linked it so people can get the context. Must have been some reason the jury let that stand.

Oh, you weren't clear, what is insane exactly? I hope you're not calling me insane. Not only is that false, but it would be a personal attack as well.

[Squinch]

11. You wrote that and you fear others personally attacking YOU?

[hootinholler]

12. Fear?

Nah, I just want you to be specific when you follow me around.

[Squinch]

13. Yep. Fear.

[ismnotwasm]

16. Veritable terror

I think

[hootinholler]

20. You didn't answer my questions

Why am I not surprised?

[ismnotwasm]

14. You posted an OP

Nobody is "following you around"--just...no

[Squinch]

17. Ism, I'm not following him, certainly, but when I do run into him, I do like to repost his words.

Because, why not? Surely he stands by them, or he would have taken them down by now.

[ismnotwasm]

18. Oh I know that

I was talking to the OP. I have those words saved myself. It is, as I expected--he's proud of them.

[Squinch]

19. No need to save them, he put them up on his journal! He must be very proud of them.

[Puglover]

22. Yeah I'm sure

Admin are sunning on a beach in Bora Bora. And that is why it still stands.

Surely it will be removed when they return.

[Autumn]

32. They will certainly do just that.

Yep.

[TSIAS]

31. One of my favorite DU posts

Certainly not polite, but the person it was directed at surely holds his own when it comes to posting personal invective. This is the guy who's proud to call all Sanders supporters white trailer trash.

[Puglover]

33. Some posters

will never figure out that DU is about the last place on the planet that most of us consider the arbiter of what is righteous and what is not.

The pompous self importance never ceases to crack me up.

[restorefreedom]

15. haven't most states done away with

making it easier to vote? i mean, er...straight ticket voting?

[brooklynite]

23. Answer: yes...

...and seriously, it was done to improve democracy. The concern among "reform" politicians was that single ticket voting gave to much clout to party structures turning out votes to whomever they chose to endorse (some States even allowed single ticket voting in primaries, for the endorsed candidates vs the challengers). A la carte voting allowed for the possibility of more discernment in choices and/or not voting at all for the position.

[restorefreedom]

25. if my memory is correct,

didn't the old machines, the ones with levers, allow a choice to do a la carte OR a single pull? i remember hearing an argument about it on radio..,the r wingers practically admitted they wanted it to be harder for the less motivated to vote.

i like your analysis better, so i will go with the optimistic explanation....

[brooklynite]

28. In PA, the Shoup machines did; the Reform argument (in NY) was to take the Party lever away

[restorefreedom]

34. mmmm.....well i can see both sides of it, but as long as people VOTE! nt

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

24. I don't vote for labels.

[ThePhilosopher04]

29. Thanks but no thanks. I will be voting for Bernie regardless.

He's the only candidate who has earned my vote.

[djean111]

30. I love how the Pledge-y Thing has morphed into Entreaties and Commands and Ringing Declarations.

Really do think there needs to be some sort of Group for this stuff.

Oh, and after the primaries would be a more logical time to post this sort of thing. Just sayin'.
