1,613,277 of you voted for a third party giving the election to Obama

wow, no wonder Obama won.... your voting methods couldn't be anymore lame or uneducated...

Totally get what you're saying! On the surface your point sounds reasonable but it is (respectfully) terribly flawed!

The fact is that people have been corralled to the point where they've bent their knee and surrendered to the idea that they only have one of two choices, along with the concession that they have to vote for "the lesser of two evils"! Voting for the lesser of two evils is still voting for evil!

I'd rather go down standing on the side of righteousness then be guilty of "winning" while standing with evil!

I knew with all my heart that my candidate choice wasn't going to win - but (respectfully) I believe it will be easier to answer God on that matter: "Lord, I voted for the one who stood for you!"
Lastly – please remember that God is Absolutely Sovereign and appoints our leaders…thus we, collectively as a nation are getting the leaders we deserve!

The P-Tards were told this back in May.


Well....here's your sign.

Instead of bashing each other, let's work together to find a solution. If you voted for a third party for moral reasons, where are your morals when it comes to your fellow American. First and foremost, you have a right to your own opinion, as do I. Second, stop being a stooge in the efforts to divide us as a nation. Everyone will never agree 100%. Compromise to get to the end goal of fair elections. We will never get there if we keep tearing one another apart.

who's to say that Obama wouldn't have been their second choice.half the votes probity would have went to him. then one quarter of romnie's votes would of went to Obama due to fraud.

Maybe, just maybe the 1,613,277 are the only people who see the fake left-right paradigm for what it really is.

Hats off to the 1,613,277.

find a solution to what? getting people to vote for what you want?

yup... they voted for what they believed in. they have my respect.

I did. And I will continue to do so until the GOP changes their stance on women's rights, gay marriage, and kick out the religious right.

So true.

So many people were angry at me and told me I wasted my vote.

I was supposed to vote for the "lesser of two evils".

It's the most ridiculous thing I have ever heard. There are other choices, why vote for any evil?

People are not only treated like cattle but act like their cattle when they have the power for change but refuse to do anything about it because they feel they have to choose corral A or Corral B.

People who choose not to find greener pastures are the first to blame everyone else for their own lack of courage and foresight.

What about all those voting machines in NV,Ohio,NC, Colorado,etc. that were discovered late that Romney votes were changed to Obama. WHere is the media on this ?

this

-about 60,000 people voted for conservative 3rd party candidates in Ohio. Obamas margin there is about 101,000 votes. A margin of 51,000 for the President, even if all 60,000 voted for Romney.

-In Colorado about 37,000 voted for conservative 3rd party candidates. The Presidents margin of victory there stands at 105,000 roughly. Still a 68,000 vote advantage for the President. Even if all 37,000 voted for Romney.

-In Nevada the President is winning by a margin of 66,000 votes. 20,000 voted 3rd party. Still 46,000 votes more for the President.

-In Va 107,000 margin for Obama. 52,000 3rd party. +55,000 Obama.

-In Wi Obama +200,000. 33,000 3rd party. Not even close.

-In Pa. Obama +284,000. 69,000 3rd party. Again, not even close.


Your argument just doesnt wash. You lost, to the President. Stop blaming others and look at your parties' platform and ideas. Which are out of step with mainstream america.

FYI I don't affiliate my self with any party.

How do you think this change will happen?

but that wasn't going to happen. the dums are not going to split off into a 3d party, the reps needed the 3d party vote to beat the dums.

3 or more parties is pie in the sky you don't get to eat. either beat the dems or not. this 3d party bullshit handed the dems another election. like it did last time. it will next time too.

We do not support nor stand for evil as you do.

You sound like Obama, blaming everyone else.

I thought Republicans believe in personal responsibility?

I looked at the votes here in california...nearly 10mill people voted here and less than 100k went to Johnson.

The way I see it the people that voted for Johnson could say the same thing. If you voted for Romney instead of Johnson you gave the win to Obama. Its all relative. If everyone votes for who they believe in maybe the outcome will be true. Stop trying to play the game and just let the votes fall the way they fall.

I gave him the numbers. As usual, ignored on here. Congrats on the Giants winning the series man.

I am the 1%

I am one of those 1,613,277. For whatever it's worth, my second choice would have been Obama.

You want educated? Etcha Sketch. Nuff said.

FIXED LONG BEFORE ANYONE VOTED

I would vote too if there was a ''none of the above''.....these people are to be praised for at least TRYING to change things

Bring the popular vote back. We have the technologically to verify people online and computers do math very well. Make each vote count!

People crying about "3rd party vote stealers" are probably the most ignorant of the voters.

Show me something that says people would have voted Mitt the Twit/Oblabla if there was no 3rd party?

Better yet, show me why your popular vote matters in the face of the electoral college?

EVEN BETTER yet, show me why voting would change anything? You'd exchange your "socialist Kenyan" for another Wall St. Crony, big fucking deal.

It's not about 'winning' when you vote third party. It is about being honest enough to stand up and say "I have no problem with voting for someone I know will lose, because I think both of the mainstream candidates are pieces of shit and neither of them deserve the office but I'll be damned if I sit aside and don't voice who I think would run the country the best."

It just so happens, sir (I assume), that if you'd chosen Dr. Paul, this would not have happened. I know of many democrats who would have willingly and gladly voted for Dr. Paul, as well as multiple independents and republicans. He would have mopped the floor with Obama. Instead, you chose someone who lied constantly, lacked in everything but money, and whose own previous constituents voted nearly 2 to 1 for Obama.

And you did not do it because he was the best republican for the job or the ballot. You did it to try and pass an agenda, and failed, because people like to know who and what they are voting for when they vote for a presidential candidate. And many, many people did not want any part of that man.

("You" meaning the collective "you", in the above statement.)

You must've been among the 99.6% that voted for the Federal Reserve. It won. Congratulations. I hope that's what you wanted, idiot.
