Or I can refuse to compromise my principles and vote independent. Either way, my vote makes no difference, but I keep my dignity, and when it goes to hell, I can say, "I didn't vote for him."

And if enough people cared about dignity, honor, and integrity, we might actually win for a change.

I think this year is the first that I heard people say "its not that Im voting for anyone as much as Im voting against the other one"

I have an equal chance of voting for either, that is to say, I'm 14 and have a 0% chance of voting.

That's not news. I've had people tell me that every year, to vote for the one I hate least....but no! I have my dignity!

Most recent CNN exit polls show 13% for Bush vs 87% for Kerry and still counting.

Interesting, looks like my theory about some connection between using of internet and voting for democrats could be true. Or maybe it is just Dom2 crowd?

Anyway, it may be too early to tell, we shall see when there will be at least 20-30 votes.

Please no offence to all other players, this restriction is purely due to specific political nature of this poll, otherwise the results will not be meaningfull.
Then you should have made the poll results viewable by non-voters as well.

Yeah - there were voters in Florida Last time around who said "MY vote won't count for anything" as well Norfleet.

I don't vote, as I believe this to be the best way to register my disillusionment with the political parties in this country, who no longer stand for anything other than being elected.

(As evidenced by "New Labour" being composed of the same people as "Old Labour" but with an entirely different manefesto! Either they all changed beliefs overnight, or they want power more than anything they believe in. Either way I don't want to vote for any of them, and believe the Conservatives are no better.

If I was an American I'd vote to remove Bush.
