9. I agree, but the highest priority is to elect the Democratic nominee as President.

Personally, I'll be voting straight D, as I do in pretty much every GE these days, unless I know something specific about one race that would make me de-select that Dem and do something else. (Can't remember that happening though.)

That said, I will not be voting "for" (ugh) McGinty, any more than I expect Sanders supporters to vote "for" Hillary.

I'll be voting straight D. That will get the distasteful job done, without me having to push the selector "for" the candidate I can no longer stand. (I actually have no such problem with voting "for" Hillary, though she was neither my first nor second choice. But we all have different priorities.)

And all that said, I'm preparing to get used to Toomey as being our (quadruple ugh) Senator for a long time. As well as Trump possibly winning PA. Because Schumer just kneecapped Democratic activism in PA. At least my area of it. Good job Chuckie.
