They even gave me a special name on their shitsite. Which I promptly coopted. See my sigline.

I'm not really sure what I'd do YET. Right now I'm focusing on Bernie

edit - nah! I decided to undo it. I don't really want to play this game either.

If people want to see what I wrote, that's fine. It's just not really worth it.

And frankly I'm getting a little tired of pledging to vote for the nominee, which is something i do every 4 years come hell or high water anyway.

There is something wrong here. This is hugely different than every other poll for the last 3 months. I don't believe this one at all. Is this one done by Clinton's campaign as propaganda?

The message that they wanted to have in theory.

Note however how there aren't the hundred or so votes these polls usually get. People aren't dumb.

What do I mean? There is nothing to stop one from writing in any candidate also on the ballot, e.g. Hillary Clinton.

Of course, ballots are secret so....

Eight months out from a general election, some of us may just not know for sure what we would do.
