Here’s the poll you’ve all been waiting for. Breathlessly, no doubt. Pied Type’s presidential preference poll for 2016. This will give my readers, all five of them, plenty of time to vote before the real election in November. Also, anyone else who is interested, feel free to jump right in. Australian, Canadian, English, anyone with an interest in who becomes the next American president. You needn’t be a registered US voter to vote here.
Votes are confidential. Neither I nor anyone else will know how you vote. And in an effort to do things a little differently this year, assuming I’ve set this up correctly, you can vote once a week until the real voting closes on Election Day, November 8.
So pull up your keyboard and start stuffing this ballot box. And feel free to comment below (politely, of course) in support of your candidate.
My mind is libertarian but my heart is subsidized. I have Medicare and Medicaid, but I still want to vote for Johnson who being an American Libertarian Party guy would want to do away with Socialized Anything. Doesn’t he?
I haven’t studied his positions, but NOBODY touches my Medicare and Social Security.
Pleasing to see the zero backing for Trump so far. It reaffirms my belief that posts and most comments here reflect common sense and respect for others (traits noticeably lacking in the Donald).
Not a lot of votes so far, and may never be. But I’ve tried to foster common sense and respect for others, so maybe that’s the kind of readers I get.
for the last 60 years each time I’ve voted my chosen one lost! So I’ve cast a vote for you know who 😈
60 years and never on the winning side? That must get discouraging.
I’ve been on the winning side it’s just that the candidate that I vote for has always lost, excepting for the very last time when I voted on the 2nd July, for the first time ever the bloke I voted for got in with an increased majority. Probably my vote as I’m new to this electorate XD
Precisely why everyone should vote and every single vote is important. We never know which one will make the difference.
I’m with you, Lord B. Lived in Utah for 30 years. Voted in every election and never picked a winner.
Vote for me! I’ll fix everything.
Oh snap! It’s too late to list you in the poll. But I love your platform.
My name is Also Fixes Everything. Can I be v.p?
Cool, now we need to fill the cabinet…
Secretary of Defense: Wanda Sykes. Secretary of State: An offspring of Sam Kinison. Interior: Martha Stewart.
Uh oh. I don’t like Martha Stewart. Gonna have to think about this.
Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww, why dontcha like her?
She sounds like a arrogant I’m-better-than-you know-it-all. That’s my impression anyway. And then on top of that she broke the law and did time.
Tell me if you can tolerate a precocious 46 year old’s continuing to fill the cabinet?
Reynolds/Cox. Sounds like a good ticket. But I’m afraid you’ve missed the filing date.
There must be a way around that! I’ve a maternal uncle Reynolds!! Write-in candidacy…
I’m with her. Reluctantly. Signed, A Sad, Sad Bernie Bird
Bernie seems to be an honorable person. Which is something I wouldn’t say about our current candidates. And that is indeed a shame.
Honorable to a fault.
Your title “Vote Early, Vote Often” reminds me of a late-night comedian’s joke (I think it was Johnny Carson) that “Results are not yet in from the outlying cemeteries.”
LOL. Loved Carson. Wouldn’t be surprised if “Vote Early, Vote Often” originated with him.
