I apologize to all of you for misspelling election and neither.


Hugo- I did include you. If you don't live in U.S. your answer is obviously neither.

I am not voting because I hate all judicial activism and there is nothing that my vote can do to change the activism.

I voted how I see it and who I think would be good in that office but yes I voted mostly democratic because I think it is time for a change hopefully it will be for the better and anyone no matter what party they affiliated with that doesn't vote has no reason to complain it is a privilege given to us to be able to vote and should be done by everyone and if everyone voted it would possibly change the way government is run both state and federal there are plenty of people registered and a lot who do not vote and a lot who could vote who don't even bother to register and vote that are of an age to vote but sit back and complain that the election did not go their way. I hope this somewhat answered your question.

I love all your disclaimers.

I am a registered Democrat and usually vote that way, but if there's someone I think is better for the job, they'll get my vote.

I was even playing around with the idea of voting for a Republican because I thought they might be better for us, but the nasty ads have turned my stomach, and now she's a no go.

Hard to say. It seems that in my state, we don't have much choice. Lets see...the status quo on one hand or gay marriage on the other. Then, we have the independents to split the Democrat votes. I can't say that I am overwhelmingly thrilled with any of the choices. Isn't it appalling? So many of us looking for representation and not finding it. I think it was interesting- the girl who said she was voting all Democrat except one, because she knew him personally. I wonder how many of us would vote for any of these clowns if we really knew them, no matter what their party affiliation. Sorry, I got off the subject. The answer is I never vote along party lines.

Yes. I made a point to vote in every election, especially on a local level. This year in Michigan we are trying to get rid of the worst governor the state of Michigan has ever had! Jennifer Granholm allows tons and tons of garbage to be imported from canada (her home) and has increased fees and licenses to help fed her political special interests.

While her opponent is as bad as she is I am going to vote straight Green Party up and down the line.

I hope, for the sake of Michigan, and all her fine residents...that she gets fired. Jennifer Granholm is the worst governor to ever be elected in Michigan.

I am voting for at least two republicans and the rest democrat.

we in Ohio also have a bill on smoking so if you live in Ohio vote NO on 4 and YES on 5 because issue 5 is to stop all smoking in any public place and that is what WE NEED, ISSUE 4 DOES NOT GO THAT FAR AND WAS BACKED BY R.J. REYNOLDS

I tend to vote Democrat for two reasons -
1) the various "third parties" don't have enough popular support to have any real shot at winning anything, and if they did, their platforms are usually quite limited and do not reflect the needs of all the constituents.
2) Democrats tend to support the same issues and concerns that I support.

However, I did vote for one Republican candidate (insurance commissioner) whom I felt was far more qualified and trustworthy than his Democratic opponent.

I will be voting for personal liberty and limited government. This normally means voting Libertarian if/when there's one on the ballot; otherwise, it's for the candidate (regardless of party) who seems to best understand the proper role of government, the US Constitution, and liberty in general.

I voted early. As a liberal I voted mainly Democrat but did not vote a straight party ticket. I voted in state races for two Republicans and an independant.

Not voting? Are you kidding? With the sad state of affairs our country is in, how could a person not vote?

Both, and for the Reform Party also.

I will be voting for canidates from both parties since neither party represents my view of America. We need to return to a more moderate goverment and get away from the Ultra Conservative Republicans and the Ultra Liberal Democrats. I will however, vote ONLY Democrat for Senate/House since it is the only way to stop Bush from doing anymore damage to the USA.
