It's none of anyone's business who I do or don't vote for.
And I don't need the nuts who think differently than I showing up on my lawn with torches and pitchforks.
It was bad enough when there was a D and an R line for voting during the last couple elections here.
Public votes for extremists to make lists from...nope...that's asking for people to get hurt.
Having votes be made public would render impotent any and all claims over voter fraud.

It’s not up to you to decide if Ukraine’s freedom is worth war with Russia. In the current circumstances, it’s up to Ukraine.

You're pounding on open doors. I don't want them to have any more of my tax dollars, or, that of my children, who, someday, will be "servicing" that debt. And, yes, $0.02 is important!
So, what you meant to say is that Ukraine’s freedom (and - by extension - the stability of Europe) isn’t worth tuppence. Got it.
Just out of curiosity, what IS worth two cents to you?

It would put people in danger and you would lose voters.
Thus far, the claims of voter fraud have been proven to be quite exaggerated.
When/if my vote is made public, I would stop voting and would petition everyone else do the same.

I have several small baskets in my home where I pile change. Every few years I cash it in.

It will never end; just wait. If they win, they'll want billions more, to rebuild.
