Johnson scares me worse than Clinton or Trump.
I have already voted for Hillary.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

Probably Gary Johnson, because his excuse that "dude, I was high" is better than any excuse the other three might mount.

I'm voting for Hillary.
I'm voting for her mostly because of the Supreme court situation. Even if I don't care for her as a person, I trust she'll select judges that aren't likely to turn this country into a fucking theocracy and roll us back to a stone age social system.
Life probably isn't going to change much for me as a middle aged heterosexual white male with a decent job. Although Trump scares the shit out me when it comes to my 401K and 403B. I can see the stock market going totally to shit if he tries to "make America great". This guy owns a few hotels and Casinos. What the fuck does he know about manufacturing except the Chinese make cheap steel and clothing lines.

Also, Jill and Gary aren't write-ins. Gary is on the ballot in all 50 states, and Jill in 45.
But I've sent in my ballot, mailed it today. I voted for Hillary as well. Down ballot, I voted for a lot of Pacific green party candidates, but I did cave and vote Democrats Ron Wyden for Senate.
I'm terrified of reversals of roe vs wade, and marriage equality. I'd like our country to keep moving forward socially, not backwards, even if we are financially no different.

Right now I'm considering following through on my signature to vote for Vermin Supreme.
I don't believe you. Get over it.

Do it!
I totally am. I also mentioned it to my boyfriend and he wants to do the same now.

In the eighties I voted for a write-in candidate named Catch-22. Met him in 1980 at a Rainbow Gathering. Tall skinny dude that dressed like Uncle Sam. Not a wasted vote in my opinion.
