I'm voting Hilary. I am completely open to discussion. I don't get mad when someone tells me they are voting trump. I'm not that kind of person. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion.
thnaks for the chance
research and my instincts
I don't discuss politics much because my friends and co-workers are smarter than me and I don't want to sound like an idiot!
I talk to family and friends about the election. And I do post on facebook about the election. I do NOT trust the media on the candidates. I get my information from watching and listening to the candidates, researching them and reading as much info I can. This year is who do you trust more and what they will do when elected. I do NOT trust either candidate, but Hillary is the worst of them, consent lies. Especially after what happen during the Benghazi attacks. I will be voting for Trump.
I tiptoe around the discussion of politics and try to avoid it. Whenever my family talks about politics it gets explosive and I'm just not into arguing.
I probably won't be voting
I cannot vote for clinton.I have done hours of research on both and I love my freedom and rights to much to lose them..She has also covered up my many things and put this country at risk.wants to bring in thousands more from syria and with disease and terrorist and who knows what else.She didnt chose her vp just because..do the research
commented on all of the links, tweeted, i wish there was a reliable source to get valid information on both candidates. i feel this is the worst election ever. it is like a Saturday nite tv show.
I only discuss political issues with my close family. Debates can become heated so I keep my opinions to myself unless I know my views are shared by the people I'm having a discussion with. Online I will like post, but I leave it at that. My choice is my choice and I don't care to debate it.
I keep my thoughts to myself or with my husband I rather not start any drama about a president that may or may not be running the US.
I don't discuss any upcoming Presidential election, but I do listen to my husband who follow the presidential campaign and he would tell me how he feels about it. I don't discuss the upcoming Presidential election at all on social media to anyone, because I am not registered to vote and also I like to keep certain things to myself. When my friends or family tells me who they are voting for, I just listen to them. I don't really have much to say about it, because I am not into politic. I get my information from friends and family. I don't really have any sources that I trust the most, since I don't follow the campaign.
I talk quite a bit to my children, husband and dad. Don't really discuss politics with outsiders it usually doesn't end well. I am a firm believer in that voting is my right to complain if you don't vote then keep your mouth shut. I research and watch all areas for reporting on the candidates for president. News, TV, debate, social media, etc at the end of the day, I'll go with the my best instinct.
I am undecided, I am not liking my choices, but I feel I have to vote.
NEVER HILLARY!!!
