| Poll question: Down and Dirty "Will You Support WHOEVER is Dem Candidate?" |
 |
whomever? eh... Quick poll - - whether your dream candidate gets the nomination or NOT, will you vote for a Dem over whichever Republican candidate gets the nod? Or will you not vote? As it stands now, we have the two parties running so if the election were held tomorrow, would you vote for whoever had the D next to his or her name, or would you stay home/vote republican?
| Poll result (229 votes) | | Yes, Dem candidate gets my vote, whoever it is. | (165 votes, 72%) | Vote | | Nope, I will stay home or vote Republican because I hate XYZ *that* much. | (64 votes, 28%) | Vote |
