I registered one day too late to be able to vote in the primary. :(
Agreed. Get out there and vote!
I'm registered as an independent, so I'm not allowed to vote tomorrow. I'M DISENFRANCHISED!
I'll be voting next Tuesday. Boo-yah! :D

I'm a registered republican and I received no literature in the mail reminding me to vote. Any other New Yorkers here NOT receive any info?
I'm registered Democrat, and I don't remember receiving anything either. In the past, I remember getting a post card before the general election (and perhaps the state-wide primary in September) with the date and place to vote, but I don't recall getting the same for the presidential primary.Quote:

I just hope a lot of people turn out.
In California we receive lots of good stuff, sample ballots & a registration guide which contains Pros/Cons on all the props & information on the candidates. There is also a good website http://lavote.net/Quote:

This is going to be a very exciting election, the polls are all over the place. :shock:
For a while McCain & Clinton enjoyed sizable leads, but, in some markets, Romney & Obama are enjoying a surge of votes & in some states, have closed the gap.
Nationally Clinton enjoys a 5 point lead in front of Obama, while McCain has a 20 point lead in front of Romney, with Huckabee out of the race, the race tightens up......
same here, got nada. i just got back actually, had to go to the post office and pharmacy etc. i actually had to wait in line for 20 minutes, there were a lot of ppl there for 10:30.Quote:

I didn't get a chance to vote since I am out of state but the man I would voted for won big anyway.
Funny how Mike was so wrong wasn't he.....Mike was also wrong when I had dinner with him a few months ago and said a Senator would never be President...hmmm That doesn't seem to be the case now.Quote:

The reason that I was against Senator Thompson was the fact the only experience he had was his stint in the Senate....[/quote]
Mike you sound like your flip flopping.....LOL Oh how about Obama....he's not dead! He's alive and steam rolling his way to victory!
As much as I'd like him to win, I don't think Obama will pull through. Like I said, if he had a little more time to gather the masses, maybe. But it's simply too late in the running.
Phils its far from to late....right now they are in a dead heat and its anybody's game. Certainly not to late at all.Quote:

Senator Dole, Senator Edwards, Senator Clinton, Senator Obama, Senator Kerry, Senator Ted Kennedy. No leadership experience whether military or Corporate...
Senator McCain has leadership experience from the military.
My personal preference is still to vote for Governors or Mayors, or some sort of business leadership.
I agree with Tommy that is still toooo early to call anybody the victor, if the vote is close, John Edwards is the Wild Card in the deck & who he will give his delegate votes to.Quote:
