Poll question: Do you know anyone who voted for * or Nader in 2000 who's for Kerry?
I know a couple of people since I was involved in my party's caucus this year. This is the flip side of the following poll: http://www.democraticunderground.com/discuss/duboard.php?az=view_all&address=132x910956

A short explanation and what state you're in would help. As I said before I'm from a blue state, Washington.

12. Me too!
It's all reprehensor's fault.

I'd been a Yella Dawg Democrat before that, but he convinced me.

With his "Honey, in Canada WE only had 2 political parties for years too. But this one party just started gaining strength because people had the courage to vote for them and now we have multiples!

Wouldn't that be great to have here? You could actually vote for the candidate and not the party?"

Oi. I felt like I was voting for 2, since he can't vote here. I will never be swayed by him again.

I'm back to my YELLER roots. Kerry all the way!

5. My partner voted Bush and is now for Kerry
Three staff members voted Nader and now are voting Kerry. I had nothing to do with this other than supplying the media.

6. I know some of Nader's major backers in 2000 who
are now supporting Kerry. There are a lot of the big names from his 2000 campaign that aren't going along this time.

7. CA
I know one Nader voter. He's voting for Kerry this time. I know two Bush voters here who won't vote for him again. One of them isn't sure about Kerry, but he's leaning in Kerry's direction. A stepson in New York who voted for Bush won't do it again. I don't know if he's going to vote for Kerry. My sister-in-law in NY wasn't registered, but she'll vote for Kerry.

9. I imagine there's a LOT of 2000 Nader voters who'll be voting Kerry
Edited on Tue Sep-28-04 02:32 PM by drumwolf
I'm one of them.

Nader disgusts me so much now that I'd never vote for him again purely out of principle, even if I was in an overwhelmingly safe red state or if the Republican candidate was a relatively sane moderate.
