    It needs to be a follow on question from your favoured primary candidate. Otherwise, like you said, you get Trump supporters picking the Trump option and making the whole thing meaningless.
    Well it's easy enough to make a better poll, and to link it.

    If your polling place uses computers...just turn around and go home.

    Just when I thought these forums couldn't get any more ridiculous....BOOM!
    Because as we know people who don't like the current crop of candidates must vote for one..cuz. Thanks for your contribution to the ridiculousness.

    'Cause they're working for the clampdown
    They put up a poster saying we earn more than you!

    I think that would be my reaction with just about any other Republican candidate up there, but I detest Trump so much I can't imagine doing anything to help him win, which staying home does to however little a degree.

    Would enough Sanders supporters STILL vote for him during the general? Or would they fall in line? I wonder if there is enough hard line Sanders people to actually HURT Hillary now....making essentially a 3rd party even though officially there isn't one.
    I wonder

    I for one would LOVE to see Sanders become pres on a write in campaign.
    It is pretty much what the political system NEEDS right now ....other than a complete demolishing/over haul

    I'll vote for Bernie anyway, via write-in. If htat's not possible I just won't vote at all. I will not vote for Hillary or Trump under any circumstances.

    ironically, by not voting for either is a vote for one of them.

    I'm increasingly enjoying the guilt being laid on Bernie voters. It's comedic.

    Don't care. Neither Trump nor Hillary will get a vote from me. Your statement is a false dichotomy.

    You can always vote for whoever you want via write-in for presidential elections. My dad (until 2008) had been writing himself in for the previous 3 elections. It was a running joke at his office that everyone wrote him in.

    I probably would; people have vowed to try to kill her already. I'd take the risk.

    Won't happen though, the establishment won't risk it.

    The last time Dems won back to back presidency was in the 60s, reps have done that twice since then. History shows us that we typically just trade off back and forth. I am betting on Trump.
    A Clinton/Sanders Ticket, IMO is the only chance the Dems have.

    I would find it at worse-case scenario that they would not vote at all instead of completely dismantling everything Bernie stands for by voting for Trump. Doing so is actually going against one of the very good reasons people like Sanders -him having a clean record of never "giving in" to corruption.

    EDIT: I'm more than certain those polling currently as "voting for trump" are Vyxn and the rest of the StormTrumpers doing their furher's work.
    Anyone who is in the military, joining the military and or retired from the military will like myself view Hillary as a massive threat not just to our livelihoods but our lives in general. Shes the person who can mishandle information sit on it get people killed and laugh it off as people died so what. There is so much wrong with that kind of mentality being in charge of the armed forces I dont even know where to start. I supported Bernie he was neither going to hollow the military out nor put us hilariously at risk for reasons basically adding up to complete personal ineptitude. But if you force me to pick between Clown A or Psychopath B we are going with the Clown.

    If Hillary loses then the thought is that the DNC might realize how much they fucked up by not going with a progressive like Bernie. Thus they might put forth a proper progressive for the 2020 run. So a lot of Bernie supporters are hoping Trump wins for this reason.

    They are basically weighing 1 term with someone they hate vs 2 terms with someone they hate. Plus a lot of progressives hate Hillary more than Trump.

    Yes and no. Depends on how you look at it.

    By casting an actual ballot against either of them, you do lower their overall percentages to both of them and while that isn't much of a thing unless the public does it in massive numbers, it does send a small message.

    I am writing in Sanders name myself. If either one of them get in, it won't be because of me.

    And as much as people hate the thought of a Trump presidency (myself included) you better hope Hillary has enough actual people to actually win. If she loses, you can blame the DNC for backing the less electable candidate.

    It would be funny to see an election where so many people wrote in another name that neither won the general, but doubt that would ever happen unless we start including "None of the Above" on the ballots which would win pretty much most elections nowadays.
    Since we can't call out Trolls and Bad Faith posters and the Ignore function doesn't actually ignore it. Add
    "mmo-champion.com##li.postbitignored"
    to your ublock or adblock filter to actually ignore ignored posters. Now just need a way to ignore responses to them as well.

    I have a hard time believing Bernie would even ACCEPT that. Shes like the living embodiment of selling your beliefs out if the price is right.
