Michigan Primary Indecision.
Advertisements [?]
I've been by my polling place a couple of times already today and both times I've turned around and gone home. I've got several issues and can't decide what I should do. My first issue is the new MI requirement to declare a party affiliation. Now, I'm a Democrat but it's really nobody's business what my affiliation is and I'm really not excited about going on someones mailing list. I may abstain from voting because of this and hope the state of Michigan gets the message for next time. Secondly, the Democratic primary results count for nothing. We will have no delegates for the convention, so to me it might not be worth it to vote. On the other hand I could register as a Republican and vote for the candidate we could have the best chance of defeating in the general. Problem is, I don't like it when Republicans do it and that would make my a hypocrite if I did the same. Lastly, if I do vote Dem, my candidate may not be on the list. I'm undecided as of now and Hillary is the only major candidate on the ballot. I in a quandary here.

Jay
