What Party Are You Registered With?

[ABM]

If any one...

 

[Denny Crane]

I'm a registered independent. It cost me the chance to vote for Ron Paul, because the republicans have a rule that you have to register as a republican 30 days before the primary. It sucked. I almost went and voted for Obama.

 

[Денг Гордон]

As far as I know, we don't have party affiliation in Wisconsin. You can join the Democratic or Republican party, and pay for your membership and all. But as far as when you register to vote, you don't register as a Democrat or Republican.

 

[huevonkiller]

I did not register with any party.

 

[Денг Гордон]

Hmm...on this note, I'm going to fill out my Missouri voter registration form right now.

 

[44Thrilla]

Ha, I was thinking about voting in NH.

 

[Денг Гордон]

The Obama campaign told me to vote absentee in Wisconsin instead of Missouri (I think they're giving up on Missouri)...but I'm a rebel, so I'm voting in Missouri. Boo! on the Obama campaign wanting to take away my fun of filling out a ballot on election day.

 

[maxiep]

I'm not registered with any party. However, I would definitely be considered to have right of center beliefs in terms of national security and libertarian beliefs on social and economic issues.

 

[maxiep]

Oh, I did change my voter registration from Oregon to Colorado, as it will be more fun to vote in a close election. I'll change it back right after November, however,

 

[Run BJM]

Independent.

 

[gambitnut]

Democrat.

 

[bbwchingy0007]

I guess I would be a Democrat if I was in USA. In the UK, I can't decide between Labour and Liberal Democrats.

 

[GMJ]

Republican.

 

[CelticKing]

Proud Republican.

 

[Tortimer]

I know this might sound dumb but I was a registered Democrat until Sept. 11. I registered as a republican not to long after 911. In my college days I was far left almost extreme (Vietnam war protester at the UO etc.). As the years went by I did start to move more to the middle and voted who ever I thought was the better candidate usually Democrats but also voted for a fair amount of Republicans and a few independents. I always heard people saying the you get more conservative the older you get and that is true for me at least.

austin mitchell is the greatest politician who has ever lived.

 

[Dumpy]

I am registered as an independent so that I wouldn't be bothered during the primaries.

 

[huevonkiller]

I used to pretend I was Republican, just to piss off the radical left at my high school. :O

Good discussions... :[

 

[shookem]

The dance party!

If I was Amurican, I'd go with the demo's even though i'm really not an Obama fan.

 

[BLAZER PROPHET]

Independent and proud of it!

 

[Real]

I registered as a Republican to vote in the primary for McCain.

It's not dumb at all. As someone who lost friends that day, September 11th changed a lot of my viewpoints regarding national security.

 

[e_blazer]

Registered independent. I was a lifelong Republican until about 8 years ago when I got tired of the far right wing of the party grabbing control of things.

 

[Colonel Ronan]

I would register for the Green Party.

 

[AgentDrazenPetrovic]

Republican. Almost switched to Libertarian but they can never get a decent candidate on the ballot (not saying the other parties do either)

 

[Minstrel]

I'm a registered Democrat for lack of good options. If only we had a solid Socialist party...!

 

[mook]

I'm registered as an independent, because I like to tell myself I'm independent.
I vote almost always Democrat.
The only party that matters in Idaho (where I live) is Republican, so I've been meaning to register as a Republican so I can vote in their (now closed) primaries. Then I could at least choose the lesser of two homophobic airport bathroom molesting bastards.

 

[julius]

I am not registered and I don't vote anymore. I haven't since 92, when I voted for Perot. I guess technically I'd be registered as a Republican but like I said, I don't vote anymore.


So why am I posting in this thread? Not sure.

I don't think it's dumb either. But I do think the reaction to 9/11 is overblown. The number of people killed by foreign terrorists on US soil is less than 3000, ever. The number of people killed in car accidents in the US is 40,000+, each year. It seems like we should be declaring war on cars and bombing Nagoya and Detroit, if protecting American lives is the issue here.

Losing 3000 people aint great, of course, but it doesn't threaten our national security.
