As GrilledCheese requested, lets keep this thread to a simple vote and perhaps a one or two sentence response as to why you chose whomever you chose. Please DO NOT use this thread to argue or bash the opposing party... we have the entire rest of the forum for that.
Absolutely correct. No third party, write-in or "None of the above" option listed.Jesda wrote:My candidate is not listed. There should at least be an option for "Other"
Could this be the first poll without Jesda's pants winning?Eikon wrote:Seriously.. quit with the drama. There is no need for it.
I never accused you of insulting anyone. I did accuse you of being overdramatic. My assumption is that the OP made an oversight in excluding 3rd party candidates. I'm certain he didn't intend to propetuate the two-party exclusionary mentality that you are accusing him of.
If you want to argue this... start a new thread! It's a great topic to discuss!! But not in this thread please.

Again we are treated to the "Democrats and Republicans are the only people who exist" mentality that the two major parties have indoctrinated and brainwashed too many people into. To the OP, GrilledCheese 33, I would recommend that you educate yourself to the thread at the top of this political forum that will introduce you to 49 other political parties here in the United States. It will introduce you to other candidates who will be on the Presidential ballot.
The voter rolls of independent and third party members in some states is approaching the number of Republican voters in those states. The Democrats have enjoyed a growth through the reistration efforts of that party and the interest during the primary season. Votes for third party candidates are becoming more in play as the two major parties continue their partisan bickering and stagnation.
Holy take everything seriously batman! Not in any way was I trying to offend anyone. I was actually very surprised to read your post. I am fully aware of 3rd party tickets but did not take the time to include them. I thought about it, but I just wanted to keep it simple since most people are interested in the big 2. Don't get butt-hurt, the pole is open, so add who you wish. Keep them serious thoughsrellim234 wrote:Why don't you let the OP speak for him/herself? Was it ignorance, intentional, or just plain oversight?
Absolutely nowhere in my post was an insult even insinuated, so don't even go there, Eikon.
Wow. Do you say that about everyone who doesn't agree with you?pandapants wrote: how is there more votes for mccain than obama.... you guys suck
typical democrat... you want all the freedom in the world but can't take it when you have to deal with others' freedoms, not to mention what you have to do to enjoy those freedoms.pandapants wrote: how is there more votes for mccain than obama.... you guys suck
Quite an EMO outlook you have there. No fight left in the dog eh? Oh well, I am sure obama will enjoy spreading your wealth around.OchnofConcrete wrote:i never vote; it's all bulls***. one way or another the government will do what it wants to whenever it wants to and have noone to answer to unless everyone takes a month off work and protests. which they can't.
