    Um, yeah. But the operative word here is 'lesser'....

    Voting, I cannot vote for Hillary or Trump though and I do like a lot of what Gary Johnson represents. I know he cannot win, but if we can get enough votes it could send a message.

    But the real message is to accept a portion of the blame for these choices. I did not vote in the primary as 72% of the rest of us didn't 86% for both parties each (only 14% of Republican and Democrats voted in their primaries). Our choices are this bad because we did not make one when it mattered and that is on a lot of us. 
    I did not vote in the primary because of party rules, you must be registered with a party to vote in the primary election in Arizona. While I generally lean towards one party I refuse to be hog-tied to a party

    I have not received a ballot. No one in my house or down the street has received any ballots.
    I kind of thought they would get here by now.

    Well sure!  Y'know, some things just can't be left to the average person, it's too important to, well, you know, the powers that be. >:)

    Voted today. Had to vote for a new boss today with our sheriff retiring. Change is coming all around for me after this election.

    You have a place to vote?
    We don't. We have to mail in our ballots.

    Demand better parties. Johnson, Weld, Castle, Stein... it doesn't matter which, cause none of them are gonna win... just pick one so you can say: "I demand more sensible choices."

    More than any presidential candidate, senator, or representative, I want to vote for this guy. I don't care what party he's with. I want to vote for him, based solely on his political campaign ad.

    If they find that she hid emails and invoked the law that prohibits her from holding office because of it, then what?
    Hold the elections all over again?
    Trump win by default?
    Do they put Sanders in against Trump?

    Id that were to happen, it would be interesting.

    I did today. Looked at the ballot for 5 minutes, I really struggled on what to do for president. My other elections were easy.
