40. I'll wait until next year to decide who I will vote for in the primary
Wed Jun 3, 2015, 09:49 PM
Jun 2015

Who knows what will happen between now and then or what information will come out about some "favored" candidate? I'll make my choice closer to the actual primary for my state.

Meanwhile, I see a lot of good in the various Democratic candidates. I like a couple of people better than others and if I had to vote today it would be a hard choice.

No matter who the nominee is, I will vote Democratic even if my favorite candidate goes third party - because the reality is that a third party candidate has no chance of winning and the thought of living under a Republican president with a Republican Congress is terrifying.
