I'm not voting because my state doesn't have a primary today. Ask me again on March 15. Until then, I'll just drink.

is it any coincidence that it is also national pig day?

I voted for the bar, because there's no option for "I already voted during early voting because my precinct poll is annoyingly inconvenient." wink

I guess I could have used "None of the above," but a bar sounded like more fun.

From Wikipedia:
In the United States, Super Tuesday, in general, refers informally to one or more Tuesdays early in a United States presidential primary season when the greatest number of states hold primary elections. The Tuesday is in either February or March of a presidential election year. In 2016, Super Tuesday will be on March 1st. More delegates to United States presidential nominating conventions can be won on Super Tuesday than on any other single day of the primary calendar. Candidates seeking the presidency traditionally must do well on this day to secure their party's nomination.

It's a good sign that the BOL poles are RED on Super Tuesday.

Can we have a bar even though I will vote today after work? Maybe if I'm drunk the choices won't look so horrifying.

I'd settle for actually voting "for" someone instead of always having to vote "against" the other idiot!

I voted. Arrived at the polling place 2 minutes before opening - was #3 in line. Cast my ballot, but based on recent opinion polls, not sure it had much impact - but I voted my conscience and so I can sleep well knowing I did what I could.

We have the option to vote "No preference" which just means there's no one in the list that I'd give my vote to. I took a blue ballot (in my state, the colors are reversed from the traditional R and D colors) only to cast a vote against a loose cannon.

Bar... Polling Station.....Bar.... Polling Station? I find this apropos as later this evening I will walk into my little polling place and all the elders, handing out the ballots and pens, will greet my husband and I by name first and ask to see our I.D. second:

Making your way in the world today takes everything you've got.
Taking a break from all your worries, sure would help a lot.

Wouldn't you like to get away?

Sometimes you want to go

Where everybody knows your name,
and they're always glad you came.
You wanna be where you can see,
our troubles are all the same
You wanna be where everybody knows
Your name.

It wasn't Super Tuesday here, but I voted to open the bar because this never-ending circus has me wanting Drunken Stupor Tuesday. whistle

Well that didn't go the way I wanted it to but I did my duty and voted based not on what the media or my friends or facebook posts told me to. Instead I voted on issues that mean something to me personally. Now I just have to sit back and wish the rest of the country was smart like me! cool laugh

I woke up this morning feeling unsatisfied with the Super Tuesday results. When one longs for a "none-of-the-above" choice on a ballot, all of the above are unsatisfying.
