    Where's the poll? And it needs more options.

    You have the right to remain silent. Anything you post to the internet can and will be used to humiliate you.

    Voted "Other", I'm probably going to abstain from voting in the presidential election unless the CP puts forth someone worth supporting.

    Yeah, I'm hanging onto my hypothetical vote for now, too.

    Clinton sucks but she doesn't swallow.
    “[T]he enshrinement of constitutional rights necessarily takes certain policy choices off the table.” (Heller, 554 U.S., at ___, 128 S.Ct., at 2822.)

    How long before "going liberal" replaces "going postal"?

    Obviously I mistimed this poll and should have waited till today to add a Constitution party option with Darrel Castle, with that option and an abstaining option, I think it pretty well would have covered most of the forum. Interesting that Trump has only gotten two votes so far, based on the amount of Trump discussion on the forum you would think there was more support. The Trump support and posting does seem to increase during the weekdays rather then weekends, so I expect more Trump votes Monday morning when people start work. Thank you to those that chose to participate in this poll and those that will.

    Johnson/Peterson/McAfee is a pretty unfair lumping. Peterson is a real Libertarian. McAfee is almost a libertarian with a lot of weird baggage. Johnson is nothing but an open borders Republican with a fondness for weed. Given the range of options from good to absolutely horrible within the "Libertarian" category, the replacing the Libertarian choice with the Constitution Party would make sense at least until we find out who is going to be the actual LP nominee.

    NOBT!

    And +Rep for not having an option for "Not voting".
    It's all about taking action and not being lazy. So you do the work, whether it's fitness or whatever. It's about getting up, motivating yourself and just doing it.

    I'll likely vote for the Libertarian Party candidate, whoever it is. Certainly won't be voting for Hillary or Trump...

    This poll is encouraging, especially since one of the 4 people saying they'd vote for Trump is TheTexan. But in reality there are more than those. It looks like a lot of the Trump supporters are abstaining out of shame.

    Unless I'm part of the Electoral College, my opinion doesn't matter. Not that I'm against the Electoral College. Actually, how do I become a member?

    How about a box of Franzia.

    At least a glass of wine or something will be in the equation for me on election night. I'm not wasting the gas on this Circus this year.

    It won't take very long to get them home but it won't be overnight either but Iraq says they can't stay and they are coming home just like Trump said.

    Depends on your state. We had some people in 2012 up for Elector in a state or 2.

    Or the people that you think are Trump supporters actually aren't supporting him, but rather making remarks on how a Trump presidency would differ from one of the other useless clowns running.

    Still not sure, but definitely neither Clinton nor Trump.

    Accumulated voting would be kinda cool. If one were allowed to save political "capital", so to speak, then there could be some interesting consequences. If I choose not to vote for "any of the above" on a ballot then I could keep "one in the pocket" for the next election. So if in the next election there was someone that I liked my vote would be counted as two votes. This proposition would make for an interesting system.

    If Peterson wins the nomination, he has my vote.

    I'd consider not voting, if I could vote twice in the next election.
