Biden Surges on DU!

[targetpractice]

18. The rule plainly reads as follows...

"If I were to vote in a presidential primary today, I would vote for..."

How is that difficult to interpret or follow?

If I remember correctly, the "Undecided" option was added later after complaints from users who wanted to participate in the primaries discussion group, but did not want to commit to a particular candidate in those early days. I get it. However, the subsequent addition of the "Undecided" option makes the whole thing meaningless.

It's totally fair that folks are truly undecided today. I have changed my mind a few times so far during the primaries... However, as a DU feature, the "undecided" option breaks the intent and spirit of the "preference" exercise.

This is just my opinion, but look at how the preferences scores are so different than current national polling. They don't even reflect the opinions of the DU population... BECAUSE 40% ARE CHOOSING NOT TO PARTICIPATE. It's great to have opinions on politics, but if you don't vote... you opinions are meaningless. That's how democracy works at the end of the day.

As Barack Obama once said... "Don't boo. Vote!"
