Your Election Voting/Support Record

[John McCain 2008]

Which candidates did you vote for (or support, if you were too young to vote or did not vote) in your lifetime?

I live in the United States, and when I was young, I must admit, I was ignorant of the Presidential elections of Bill Clinton's time, but starting 2000, I actually supported George W. Bush for the office.

So here's my personal support/voting record list:

2000: Supported George W. Bush

2004 Supported George W. Bush

2008: Voted for John McCain

Thus far, I have a record going on as purely on the side of the Republican Party.

Goldwater, Nixon, Nixon, Anderson, Reagan, Reagan, Bush, Bush, Dole, Bush, Bush, McCain.

Do you see a pattern? Of greater interest is who you support in the primary process where the real choices are made. By time it is the general election, you should already be voting party over person.

reagan, reagan, bush, clinton, clinton, bush, bush, voted for mccain but didnt really support him better of two evils to me.

[Rush Limbaugh]

Just look who was running as a libertarian that year and thats pretty much who i voted for. I wrote in Ron Paul this time.

Voting party over person is horrible. I don't possibly see how anyone could justify such voting behaviour.

I like Bill
I like Gore
Didn't care for Kerry
Liked Bush in that year.
Didn't like Obama.

You find me party like that and I'll be in it.

I liked Bill also -- does not mean I would vote for him though. I will grant that party does matter more for legislative seats than the executive. Only real reason to vote party for the President are the court appointments, not trivial though.

Thats why were ed for at least another 20 years when Obama gets through.

2000: Bush
2004: Neither Bush nor Kerry (guess that leaves Nater)
2008: Obama (unhappily)

You just wasted away after Bushs 1st term I guess. See picking a winner didnt even make you happy. You should have stayed home again. Ever think of voting libertarian?

I have thought about voting libertarian; supported Ron Paul in the primaries, but did not like Bob Barr. If only the president was being elected I may have stayed home this last election, but I wanted to vote for Senate, House, State issues and such.

Canadian Elections:

2008: Jack Layton (NDP) [I'm sorry but a PhD in Political Sciences ftw lol]

Dion also had a PhD from the Institut d'Etudes Politiques de Paris.

Yet Dion was a horrible candidate for PM. It proved so when they lost 26 seats... Ouch. And Layton gained a few.

I'm not American, but even though I consider myself 'Conservative', out of the most recent presidents I most certainly would have thrown my support, most fervently and most urgently, behind Clinton. He was a Moderate, and in general a decent president. I would not have supported Bush- though perhaps in his first term, who knows. McCain was a mediocre choice, and Obama even more so. Really, the candidates have gone down hill drastically since the 90's.

It's also rather concerning to note that out of the Presidents I mentioned, Clinton was the most Conservative in the traditional sense.

Canada:
2004: Harper
2006: Harper
2008: Harper

Provincially I, very regretfully, supported McGunity in the last election. John Tory is just too much of a douche to support.

What can I say.

Raising taxes and gutting the military? Ill give you theres not a conservative among them. In fact in some ways you may have a point. But I think it was the republican congress that gave him that image.

01 Howard
04 Howard Latham was just too repulsive
07 Greens

Even though thanks to Parliamentary democracy my vote didn't mean a thing since I live in a safe Labor seat.
