Don't forget to vote....

Briefly thought about putting this in the kitchen but we'll start this out as a friendly reminder to get your ass out there and vote.

 

I'm 32 and can honestly say I feel as though this is the most important primary election that I've had the chance to be a part of. Regardless of party affiliation or belief system its important to get involved especially in a swing state.

 

Any predictions who will come out ahead?

Gov. Kasich is my hope. Just got back from voting.

 

Get out there folks. It makes a difference.

 

 

^^ this, but I'll be supporting whoever they nominate. after two terms of dumb-ass in office, I have no faith in the masses who do vote to make a good decision though.

Serious question: If Kasich wins Ohio, that will be the only state he has won. Does that really give him a chance at all with such few delegates?

 

only if they go to Cleveland and they put him forth vs Trump. Key really is does he stand a chance to garnering enough votes in a General Election. I don't think so but he is the better choice IMO.

+1 Wasn't able to go this morning, taking an extended lunch to go vote.

 

I think it's going to be close on both sides.

If Kasich wins Ohio today and Rubio loses Florida, I would have to think Rubio drops out.

 

Most of Rubios support should start backing Kasich after that point. According to most polls I have seen that assume that situation, it would more than likely force a brokered convention. (Because no one will get the 1,237 delegates required) I have a HARD time seeing anyone except Kasich get the nomination IF it does indeed go to a brokered convention.

 

I'm definitely going to get out and make my Kasich vote today.

Not really, but the primary is a populist vote so it sends a message. You never know what the future holds...

Plus, let's say Kasich wins Ohio and a few other states (or even only wins Ohio) but still loses: the delegates he's won will go towards the front-runner candidate anyway. So...at least in Ohio, a vote for Kasich shows some form of state pride - while shaking up a crazy political process a little more. :D

If you believe all the polls, he does better in the general election than any other Republican nominee. A lot of Independents and moderate Democrats will vote for him.

I hope so but in the end, I believe .001% of what I see in the media. IMO they have their own agenda vs actually reporting the truth.

I completely agree.

 

 

Keep in mind though... the media is NOT pushing those polls, lol. To listen to the media, you would think Kasich doesn't stand a chance in the general.

Nope. Unless we are invaded by aliens "Mars Attacks" style, you GOP dudes will be voting for Trump in the general election this year. Book it.

 

I weep for the Republican party. I really, really hope that this years election becomes the beginning of the end for the two party system.

 

 

 

Oh, and I voted absentee like 3 weeks ago. ;-)

but they do push the polls that they want to push. They pushed Clinton taking MI and they were way way wrong.

Agree. I would hope Americans believe in him and will go that route. However as noted before, I have lost faith in the masses being able to make good decisions.
