When is time to vote for Prez, can a name be "written in". |
|
Actually first thing - when my state finally gets around to voting for a nominee - can a name be written in?
In both cases for nominee and then for Prez - can a name be written in?

2. Sure! Remember all those votes that DIDN'T count for Gore? |
|
Checked off "Gore" then wrote in "Gore" where it said "write your choice for president here".
Vote didn't count?

Have a touch screen keyboard for write ins.
The ability to write in a candidate varies from state to state. In NC, for example, you can write in a presidential candidate, but the state isn't obligated to count them (as it didn't in 2000).

A vote for anyone other than the eventual Democratic nominee is an effective vote for Bush. Have a nice day! :)

Couldn't one just as "correctly" say that a vote for a Green candidate is an effective vote for the dem nominee?

8. I honestly feel it is a passive-aggressive form of intimidation... |
|
...when people say a vote for someone other than the Democratic candidate is a vote for Bush.
