2016 For or Against?
October 25, 2016 at 8:19 pm (This post was last modified: October 25, 2016 at 8:35 pm by Jenny A.)
I find one of the U.S. presidential candidates abhorrent and ready to take us to hell in a hand basket and the other not headed where I want to go economically or internationally,  but not  headed to hell in a hand basket.  I find one qualified and the other not.  One secretive and occasionally lying and the other ridiculously secretive and always lying.  One who definitely has the best interests of the country in mind and one who has his own interests in mind.  

I have voted against Trump. But it appears that I'm in the minority of Clinton voters.  Most of them are voting for Clinton.  And most Trump voters are voting against Clinton rather than for Trump.  http://fivethirtyeight.com/features/clin...nst-trump/ This strikes me as odd given that media coverage portrays this election as a referendum on Trump handicapped by a poor Democratic offering. 

Are you voting for or against?

Why. I'm voting against something for as long as I can remember. I only voted for some candidate in 2004 and 2010. Other than that, for the last 35 years, I'm voting against.

I'm voting for Clinton. I think she'll make a fine President.

Oh fun. I gave non U.S. citizens the choice of against Trump or against Trump. Please read the second against as for.

I don't think she will be awful, I'm just appalled by Trump and wish I  had better options.

Against both, voting Johnson, or perhaps Clinton if Texas stays close.
