500 looks, and only 60 votes??? I hope the Nov. 4th election doesn't get such an odd turn out.

For the first time in my voting life, I'm still undecided with less than a month to go.

I won't be able to live with myself if I don't VOTE, but I'm not thrilled with the democratic ticket (at least in the order they appear...O/B...IMHO I'd be happier with B/O).

Anyway, still undecided. A write-in vote is looking better and better.

Please don't waste your vote. Do your homework and decide who you feel is the best candidate and vote for them.

There are 13 sets of President/Vice President running this year. Or should I say, "on the ticket" and a write-in option.

Actually I think there are only 5 people on the ticket plus the write-in option.

Obama
McCain
Barr
McKinney
Nader
Write-In

But reality sets in and there are only 2 that have a chance to win the election.

Each state is different as to who is on the ballot.

Constitution party is on 37 state ballots
Libertarian Party is on 45 state ballots
Green Party is on 32 state ballots
Independent (Nader) is on 44 state ballots

You already knew about the Objectivist Party and the Boston Tea Party? If so, who do they represent?
