Title: I voted for Mike Huckabee today.
Post by: admin on April 22, 2008, 11:26:29 AM
Today is The Pennsylvania Primary. After attending Chol Hamoed Pesach synagogue services this morning, I voted in the primary at the firehouse across the street from the synagogue. Mike Huckabee was still on the ballot so I voted for him but it didn't say who the delegates were committed to so I just picked by which name I liked better but it didn't matter because McCain already clinched anyway. It said to vote for delegates and to pick 22 of 23 delegates to the state committee. The three Republican candidates were John McCain, Mike Huckabee, and Ron Paul. There are actually Ron Paul signs I see hung up on the way to college.

The Democrat ballot which wasn't lit up in my voting booth did say who the delegates were committed to. Now my dad and sister went to vote for Hitlery against Osama.

My family did something similar. My dad voted for Huckabee while I went and voted for Hitlery. Sad sad sad. I'm still frustrated to have had to do that.

I did the same in Washington State. Obama was way ahead and McCain had already won

Then why were you registered as a Democrat?



Texas has open primaries. You don't register as part of a party. You choose one of the parties to vote in their primary but you can't vote in both, that's all. I like it because it gives us a lot of flexibility.

Yes and after the Primary you can go the cacaus. So you can vote twice

I couldn't go to the caucus because I had to work later on that day. Even if I could go, I wouldn't have though, because it was being overrun by dangerous looking Obama supporters.
