I'm definitely voting for Bernie in the primary here in NY.

If he wins, I'll vote for him in the general.
If he doesn't, I'll vote for him as a write-in in the general.

In NY, my general election vote doesn't matter, because NY is a strong blue state. The D candidate will take it, whether I vote or not. So why not vote for Bernie there, too?

I voted for Teachout in the NY Governor primary, but she didn't win. I wrote in Teachout in the general election instead of Cuomo, because he was going to win regardless. So fuck Cuomo.
