So how are you going to vote today?

[Bumrush99]

Even thought I'm a moderate with leanings towards the Republican Party, I'm voting a straight Democratic ticket. Tired of the corruption, lies, trampling of the constitution, federal deficit, horrific Stem Cell policy, religous hypocrisy and outright lies of this adminstration and the Congress that gave the adminstration the green light to do whatever it felt like.
I tried to like George W Bush, I really did. I admired his tenacity, but at the end of the day his hypocrisy on fighting the war while preventing medical advances through science show how near sighted he is and how out of touch his party is with the welfare and well being of the American people.

Hah what a joke. If you arent voting for repbulicans because of Ted Haggart then you are nothing more than a product of the dinosaur spin media. Last I checked, Ted Haggart wasn't running for office. Give me a break.

The republicans stem cell stance is nothing new either.

 

[judasmachine]

Mixed. I'm voting for a variety of different groups, mostly independent, and some democrats. There is one republican on the local level I'm considering voting for as he is an old school conservative, and is almost always the swing guy (read level headed) on the city council, that and he's a real guy and not part of the "Amarillo Mafia."

EDIT: Yup I split the ticket Libertarians, Democrats, and Republicans oh my!

Yeah berate him into your view that'll work.

 

[Bumrush99]

Where do you see anything about Ted Haggart?

My mind was made up long before this scandal hit, I could care less what people do behind closed doors. I'm not a Conservative Social Republican that spends half my day wondering about who is getting blown, what the evil "gays" are up to, how many abortions are being performed per minute, what the evil gamblers are up to and how we are all going to hell if we don't accept the lord in to our lives... So no, Haggard has nothing to do with this. But it is a perfect example of the moral hypocrisy and bulls*it of the religous right, from Haggard to Lott to Abrahmoff to the rest of the holier than thou crowd that is as bad, if not worse than the people they scapegoat.

 

[Thump553]

Perhaps you should limit this poll to national level offices only. George Bush had absolutely no effect on who I voted for governor, state attorney general, (town) probate judge, etc.

 

[Schadenfroh]

Cant, been away from my home for three weeks and I will not get back till friday.

Makes sense. First you say Haggard has nothing to do with it and then list him in part of the "religious right" hypocracy you are voting against.

Exactly. Keep up the good work, Bushboy!

You really lack in reading comprehension. I made up my mind before the Haggard scandal. It is a recent example of the intolerance and hypocrisy of the religous right and has been evident since this adminstration took office and decided to pander to that element. Can you comprehend that?

You're the one who brought up Ted Haggard. All Bumrush99 said was religious hypocrisy. The last time I checked, that wasn't the only case of it.

 

[HombrePequeno]

I'm voting mixed. I would be voting all Libertarian if I could (assuming the candidates were good) but there is only one running. So I voted for a mix of Libertarian, Democrat, and Republican. I would never vote for a sh!tty Democrat if there is a better Republican running.

 

[Sheik Yerbouti]

When I vote tonight it will be a straight progressive, i.e. Democratic party. Shocking, ain't it..

Agreed.

 

[GoPackGo]

I ended up voting all republicans...I can't stand the thought of todays Democratic Party having control of anything.

 

[Aisengard]

So you'd rather have today's proven terrible Republican party rather than a party who the last time they could affect change was in 2002. Makes sense...

Agreed.

Poll has been updated to include state and local races.

My community needs Republicans in power to provide the focus our economy needs.

Democrats for too long have turned all of their attention to the Twin Cities area while hugely ignoring the third largest city in the state.

Republicans here are more pro-environment and pro-education.

Tim Pawlenty was left a mess by Jesse Ventura and tough decisions had to be made.

 

[dullard]

I voted. There was only one national thing to vote on, so does that mean it counts as a straight Democrat ticket in your poll? That is, if you can even count Sen. Nelson as a Democrat.

State and local was mixed as usual for me.

 

[Ferocious]

In the 80's and early 90's I voted mostly Republican. Also a big Newt fan.

Mid and late 90's I was mostly mixed.

2000 and beyond I've been voting mostly Democrat.

Today I picked Dem on almost 90% of the choices.

 

[Moonbeam]

I will vote by taking a piece of paper into a booth and marking it with a thick black pen connecting two parts of an arrow that points to what I am voting for. I will then take that and put it into a machine that electronically records my vote and saves my paper ballot.

 

[Rapier]

The important thing to remember is to vote.

Throwing in my $0.02, here is a "wake-up call" from those far-left New Yorker's that would love to run the country (seems fitting that it was published today).

So all change is good, huh. How terrible are things?

1. The stock market is dancing around an all time high,
2. Economy is good,
3. Unemployment is low, etc.

I'm old enough to remember 1980 when Jimmy Carter was leaving office...

 

[Ryan]

I voted straight Democrat, not out of objection, but on the principle that I believed they would actually be better than the republican counterpart.

 

[TravisT]

If you are voting straight party you must be uninformed. There are plenty of people on both sides of the fence that is capable of doing their jobs. You aren't doing your job as a voter if you aren't willing to take out the time to figure out what your candidates want to do and vote based on that rather than their party name.
