Sure. I view the GOP governor candidate as unqualified this go-around so I voted for Walz. - ML Oct 18, 09:58
People have different views of what is “qualifying” - znufrii, official Gen-Xer Oct 18, 09:49
Nope. I've never voted for someone I didn't like or think they'd do a good job. -- nm - Krusty Oct 18, 09:43
Yes, I’d vote for you, Dano. You don’t need to be coy. -- nm - The Allfather Oct 18, 09:34 1
- If libertarians are house cats, we know that is his ticket. -- nm - Spawn Oct 18, 09:36
If I knew they were that unqualified? Absolutely not. I'm already questioning if I am voting for my city-council member, because he's a former cop. -- nm - Qale Oct 18, 09:25 1
- One of my town councillors is a *current* cop. (Detective, actually) -- nm - Beryllium Oct 18, 09:30
this is like all those "Can you how Fox News would have reacted if Obama/Hillary did..." tweets. no, i can't because they never would have done that - hollywood big shot Oct 18, 09:24 1
- I don't disagree with this, but I would have voted for inanimate carbon rod over Trump. -- nm - Dano Oct 18, 09:30
I doubt anyone is going to say yes in the abstract. -- nm - spamlet Oct 18, 09:16 21
- Maybe it can be put another way. "Who is the least competent person you have ever voted for?" -- nm - Roger More Oct 18, 09:45 2
  - Technically myself for coroner. I don't think I've ever voted for someone *IN*competent. Thinking about *least* competent. -- nm - Dano Oct 18, 10:10
  - probably Biden -- nm - ML Oct 18, 10:01
- I was just thinking how I couldn't understand how even Republicans could vote for Walker, so I tried to turn the question on myself. - Dano Oct 18, 09:25 16
  - Same, for this year only, not in a non-Trumpian era. -- (edited) - Max Oct 18, 09:47
  - I get where you're going and that's admirable. - spamlet Oct 18, 09:34
  - Without his UGA affiliation and recognition he doesn't win the primary -- nm - Strongbad Oct 18, 09:32 9
    - I mean, that's really the issue right? To Dano's question, in today's environment I would just never vote for a republican. The majority of - pmb Oct 18, 09:40 5
      - When I'm choosing a candidate, I value their individual merit more than the letter behind their name. -- nm - Strongbad Oct 18, 09:51 4
        
        Choosing to run under the banner of the current Republican Party doesn’t reflect on individual merit, or lack thereof? - znufrii, official Gen-Xer Oct 18, 10:42 1
        
        I agree, but it's one factor of many. -- nm - Strongbad Oct 18, 10:52
        
        Historically I'm with you. I have split tickets in the past. We're not in a normal world right now. - pmb Oct 18, 10:01
        
        I try to, but it's become very difficult right now. -- nm - Dano Oct 18, 10:00
    - See: Tuberville in AL -- nm - Strongbad Oct 18, 09:32 2
      - I wasn't really going there, but does it seem that currently Republicans are way more likely to nominate these types of candidates? -- nm - Dano Oct 18, 09:38 1
        
        So far, yes. -- nm - Strongbad Oct 18, 09:50
  - there is no equivalence, despite apologists for these clowns wanting you to think that both sides' candidates are equally flawed -- nm - hollywood big shot Oct 18, 09:28
  - Abstinence is also an option, yes? - Beryllium Oct 18, 09:28 2
    - Yes. You could also vote 3rd party or skip that race on your ballot. -- nm - Dano Oct 18, 09:32 1
      - That is what I do (skip), frequently. I don't want the "bad" guy winning by the same margins as the better ones. -- nm - Spawn Oct 18, 09:35
- It's a tough one for me. In NY the Dem's gonna win regardless so I have latitude. If I was in Georgia? It's tough. -- nm* - ty97 Oct 18, 09:20
I'll be going split ticket, Kemp and Warnock -- nm - Strongbad Oct 18, 09:16 8
- from your mouth to gods ears. Because if Walker pulls this off then I really have no hope for this country. -- nm - Jovian Oct 18, 09:26 7
  - I figured you were long gone after MTG -- nm - Strongbad Oct 18, 09:32 6
    - There’s always some level of utterly repugnant vacuous dipshits In gerrymandered districts. Gohmert, McKinney, MTG… - Will Hunting Oct 18, 09:37 4
      - McKinney is a good comparison. -- nm - Strongbad Oct 18, 09:50 2
        
        and has been out of office for 15 years -- nm - hollywood big shot Oct 18, 10:18 1
        
        Sadly. She was fun. -- nm - Strongbad Oct 18, 10:53
      - just dont underestimate MTG. She is *extremely* popular on the right. - Jovian Oct 18, 09:42
    - Oh you mean the person DJT is already thinking about installing at the DOJ? -- nm - Jovian Oct 18, 09:36
