In November how will you vote?

[greenbriar]

show your true colors now


this is non comittal on the nominee

its all about country and party

[greenbriar]

1. if you are not voting for the democratic candidate

you will become part of the problem and will have no business complaining about how messed up this country is

[newmajority]

2. I will vote for Barack Obama

The next President of the United States of America.

[nadinbrzezinski]

3. no brainer

[greenbriar]

4. you would think so

but after the last couple of days...not so sure...



and we already have one nader vote...

[nadinbrzezinski]

14. Given the Primary vote in many states is already higher than the

GE in 2004 I think the Repukes are rightly shitting their pants

And I will not suggest not worrying by the way...

But if this election is clean, or fairly clean.. the whigs do come to mind

[ruby slippers]

5. Obama but not so sure for Hillary if she is the nominee

but I surely won't vote for McCain. I'll probably write in Obama.

Sorry, but that is my true colors....and remember, I am not a registered Democrat....so I don't feel loyal to any party. I am just here now to support you with Barack....remember, you need us and I am watching the Hillary supporters on here very carefully and that is why I remain uncommitted to her. They just need to give it up and so does she.

[greenbriar]

7. fair enough

I think we need to think of the future.


McNasty will continue a path of destructiveness worse than we have now


My first choice was Edwards now I am rooting for Obama, but should Hillary squeek it out, I will pull the lever for her


we need to correct the path we are on and it will not happen unless a democratic candidate wins

[dajoki]

65. Me Too...

My first choice was Edwards now I am rooting for Obama, but should Hillary squeek it out, I will pull the lever for her.
I will support and vote for any Democrat!! I do see Nader getting some votes though, that mistake was made before, I hope those who are thinking about it remember the consequences.

[anonymous171]

6. I will vote for the nominee. Hillary may be an evil, lying, maniacle, immoral monster, but

McCain is a neocon. Obvious choice. That's only if it's Hillary though. I will gladly vote for the nominee if it is Obama.

[jeff30997]

12. "an evil, lying, maniacle, immoral monster"

Funny how all those words and several more can be reduced to one word:Neocon.:)

[anonymous171]

13. Correct.

:hi:

[Ken Burch]

24. For a second there, I thought you were gonna finish that line with

"...but she's the ONLY evil, manaical, immoral monster we've got!"

:eyes:

[Skittles]

8. I will hold my nose and vote for whomever is the Dem nominee n/t

[nadinbrzezinski]

15. 'xactly!!!!!!

[jeff30997]

9. None of the above.

But if I was an American Citizen I would go for anybody from the Democratic party.:)

[Tierra_y_Libertad]

10. My nose holding has it's limits. McCain and Hillary violate those limits.

Fortunately, I'm a DINO and vote accordingly.

[jeff30997]

17. Forgive my ignorance but what does DINO means ?

I've seen that acronym before but I never asked what it meant.

[TahitiNut]

18. "Democrat In Name Only"

Just one of the many weapons used in the Assault On Reason. :shrug:

[Zavulon]

11. I'll gladly vote for Obama. If Hillary is the nominee,

I was prepared to vote for her with barf bag in hand until her RFK comment. Now, if she gets the nomination, I'm not sure. I'll never vote for McCain, but if she somehow gets the nod I might just vote in local races and leave the president block blank.

[peacebird]

31. ditto.

[Ken Burch]

16. The poll should also have included Cynthia McKinney, the ACTUAL Green Party candidate

I wouldn't vote for her, but we shouldn't indulge Ralph in the illusion that he'd be the ONLY progressive independent candidate.

[TahitiNut]

19. Has she won the nomination yet?

It seems there are many state Green Parties not yet voting. Time will tell.

2008 Green Party Presidential Nomination Delegate Count

The current vote totals are:
Ball (10); Brown (9); Hawkins (8); Johnson (22); McKinney (196); Mesplay (22); Nader (132); NOTA (6); Swift (19); Uncommitted (25)

http://www.gp.org/2008-elections/Delegate-Vote-Count.php

[Ken Burch]

22. I was under the impression she had. And it is also clear that Ralph

is once again running as an independent AGAINST the Green Party ticket. He never joined the Greens even when he led their ticket. Anybody know why he couldn't just have backed THEIR actual ticket?

[TahitiNut]

26. Well, it seems he's running a close second to McKinney for the GP nomination from the link I cited.

:shrug:

[New Dawn]

27. Cynthia McKinney Cinches Green Party Nomination

http://www.ballot-access.org/2008/05/26/cynthia-mckinney-cinches-green-party-nomination/

[TahitiNut]

28. Isn't it strange that the Green Party web site hasn't gotten the news?

:eyes:

[Ken Burch]

70. They're probably still trying to reach "consensus" about how to word the announcement

:eyes:

[cloudythescribbler]

33. You mean she tightened the nomination around her waist? or maybe "clinches" would be preferable nt

[still_one]

20. Whoever the Democratic nominee is, but I will tell you if a person calls

themselve a Democrat, and their candidate does NOT win the nomination, and they don't vote for the Democratic nominee, and we lose because of their ego to mccain, THEY CAN GO TO HELL as far as I am concerned

[jeff30997]

21. If McNugget wins they won't have to go to hell...

Because it will be Hell on earth.

[still_one]

23. They will deserve the Supreme Court they get, that is for sure /nt

[Flying Dream Blues]

39. I feel exactly the same way. nt

[ObamaKerryDem]

25. I will be voting for the Democrat..

..and I will be voting, proudly, for Barack Obama. :D

[FlyingSquirrel]

29. Nice poll.

Does leave out the possibility, "Write-in" as some have indicated they may write in their candidate of choice - Biden, Edwards, Kucinich, Clinton, etc.

Me, I choose #1 of course.

[davidpdx]

30. If it's Obama, I'll vote for him

If it's Clinton, I'll vote for a third party or skip that portion of the ballot.

[Tesha]

36. Likewise. And it's dispicable that the poll creater didn't provide for options like this. (NT)

[cloudythescribbler]

32. This poll omits major possibilities -- there should be choices for "Democratic nominee only if ...

it's ... (Obama, Clinton)", and "other"; even though the poll designer might want to push a principle and a point, it is done at the expense of framing the poll questions even adequately.

As for myself -- as I've said on DU many times -- I'd vote for
either Obama or Clinton if either were the nominee (as if it were in doubt), but not, say for John Silber, and if it were Zell Miller, I'd be very tempted to stay home. I am not willing to be BLINDLY loyal to the Democratic Party, although I am a Democrat, and have voted, and voted consistently for the Democrat for president now for 20 years.

A push poll isn't going to get anyone who would otherwise NOT vote for the Democratic nominee to do so, so the "good deed" aspect of this distorted poll is absent in practice.

[greenbriar]

40. I did that on purpose. I want to see who truly is putting country and party

before themselves

[cloudythescribbler]

57. someone may think McCain better "for the country", or voting for Nader, or whatever ...

distorting the reality in a poll doesn't help the country or the Democrats IMHO

[Raine]

34. Obama gets my vote

he's the only REAL Democrat running so he's one and only that gets my vote.

[harun]

47. Got that right!

[Iceburg]

35. I vote to uphold the principles of democracy -- one being the privacy of the vote /nt

[LWolf]

37. Other:

I don't know. I may not know until November. At the least, I'll wait until after the convention to mull over my options.

Some of the options aren't on this poll.

FWIW: I don't do loyalty oaths of any kind. At any time. I don't respect those who demand them, or those who use them as a purge.

[ccharles000]

38. The Democratic Candidate no matter who.

[L0oniX]

41. Nader voters are our enemies..

:evilfrown:

[donheld]

42. The Democrat. Hillary or Barack

[SoonerPride]

43. I mail in a paper ballot.

[lojasmo]

44. Obama. EOM

[Bright Eyes]

45. If Clinton is the nom (which she won't), I won't vote FOR her,

I'd vote AGAINST McCain.

And I'll vote for Obama gladly.

[Solon]

46. Against the Republicans. n/t

[polmaven]

48. OK......

Ralph Nader is bad enough, but WHO are those OFFICAL MORANS stating they will vote McCain or Barr?????

EEEEEWWWWWWW!!!!!

[greenbriar]

54. not true democratic members truly

disruptors or people who do NOT care about how this nation is going

[Skip Intro]

49. "Other" is always a good option to iinclude in any poll.

[Seabiscuit]

50. I was thinking the same thing.

[greenbriar]

55. I did not want other in this poll

I wanted to see how many traitors to the democratic party and to the nation there were on this board

[Skip Intro]

69. oh, a push poll

did you get what you wanted?

[anamnua]

51. You are ignoring the option of a Hillary write-in nt

[Milo_Bloom]

52. For Barack Obama or 3rd Party.

[IndianaJones]

53. not Obama. nt.

[PBS Poll-435]

56. Other - Stinking DRUNK

I usually take election day off.

[greenbriar]

58. I take the next day off

so I can stay up all night and analyze all the news and commentary

[JeffR]

61. DUzy n/t

[PBS Poll-435]

62. Me?

:D

[Swamp Rat]

64. YOU!

:D

[greenbriar]

59. there are 12 people on here

who are cowards and need to leave

[invictus]

60. O B A M A

n/t

[CaptJasHook]

63. 12 people so far make me said and worried about the future of this country.

[amelia]

66. I will write in Hillary Clinton's name and vote for the REAL nominee

[Elspeth]

67. Who the hell is still voting for Nader? Really?

Come on!

[cboy4]

68. I will vote for Obama if he's the nominee, although there's

no question I will vomit uncontrollably seconds after I circle in his name.

[Traction311]

71. Where's the option for not voting?
