It felt good to do my civic duty and vote for the candidate of my choice today.

It is in, my vote was also correctly recorded, and I went home happy.

It is a shame some here cannot stand the fact I did not vote the way THEY wanted me to.

Too bad. Smell the freedom.

I voted my CHOICE. Deal with it!

Over the last few months I have butted heads with more than a few members here who are totally against this process of voting for your personal choice.

I even got called out, cursed & abused, and insulted daily for daring to do this horrible thing.

Tsk, tsk, ...citizens freely voting for the candidate of their choice. What is this world coming to?

Well, too late now. My vote is in, and it has been duly registered and counted.

It is too late to stop it now!

The horror...the horror...

Didn't we go over this months ago? Nobody wants to take away your right to vote the candidate of your choice. But they are totally within their rights to criticize you for voting for DJT. It's just like how many Donald Trump supporters (not you specifically) attack/criticize Hillary Clinton supporters for voting for her.

But anyways, congratulations dude. Hopefully we'll have better choices next election season.

You voted.

You got my respect.

This is what it's all about! :thumbs:
 
Um...do they even bother to count votes in Texas? That hasn't been blue in my entire lifetime. Now Florida...you bet I will be voting.

You are incorrect.

If I am not voting for Hillary, then they want to stop me from voting...PERIOD.

Go back and read your buddy's Phys251 posts. He and many more of your friends are attacking the fact I am voting at all.

If you do not vote for Hillary, then they want you to not vote at all.

Not true. But whatever; I'll just drop it here.

No need to get into another argument.

Thank you, Chomsky. It is getting to know people like you is why I came to this site.

We are on different political spectrums, but we can still cuss, discuss, talk, and share our opinions without wanting to shut the other one down.

I think they call it MATURITY.

I voted my choice on the 20th.
 
Well I am glad no one here seems to be voting someone else's choice. It is best to vote your choice.

so did I.

Green is good.

Green is a natural color

Green is a cool color

Green symbolizes life on this planet

Green symbolizes new growth on this planet

Green is good to eat...
Green fried tomatoes
Picked sweet green tomatoes
Green beans
Green eggs & ham
Turnip greens
collard greens & black eyed peas over rice (my personal favorite of them all)
the list goes on.

IN SUMMARY: GREEN is good.

It is always best to vote your own choice.

The only problem with that is, there are more than a few that do not want you to do that,... if your choice is contrary to theirs.

Good for You. One should always vote based on their principles and for the candidate that they feel most closely aligns with those principles. Hope I was not one that attacked you on your choice, if I did it was unintentional, I may disagree with your choice, or not, but everyone has a Right to their own choices.

We won't. Because Clinton is going to win by a landslide, letting out two parties know to keep giving us more of the same.

Your assessment of the critiques of your choice is wildly wrong.

Though I am technically too young to serve, I thank you for your confidence, and, if elected, promise to appoint General Mattis as Secretary of Offense (Secretary of Defense being unfitting for him).

<---------------- As a general rule, this guy. Not saying this about the OP, but - again, as a general rule - we have far too many ignorant people making decisions on behalf of the most powerful nation in mankinds' history.

IDK. Maybe I'm clueless. But am I missing something? He voted. God Bless him. But is this another 'woe is me' Trumpster? Did someone here physically try to keep him from voting?

:shrug: I don't even know if he voted for Trump. If he's a Texas guy, his electoral votes are (probably - and isn't it amazing you have to say "probably"?) going to Trump anywho.

Florida voters, Ohio voters, Arizona voters, Utah voters, and North Carolina voters may matter.
