With the sorry choices of McCain or McCain left, how about a write-in of Thompson in Texas? Is it allowed under Texas primary rules?
Beats not voting and beats supporting McCain.
Thompson is supposedly coming out in support of McCain.
I wouldn’t bother.
Having moved from Virginia, this is my first time to vote in Texas. I have to vote my conscience and I cannot vote for McCain, so if they don’t let me write in, what’s the procedure in Texas?
I’m writing in Duncan Hunter.
Write in Hunter and send a message. I would if I were there.
We’ve been hearing that for months. But it hasn’t happened yet.
Sorry state of affairs. I will still cast my vote for Romney, if he is still on the ballot.
Hunter is on the ballot. Easy choice.
Count me out. I only have one vote in Texas and I’m not wasting it writing anyone in who’s not in the race.
To tell the truth; I don’t know about write in candidates in the prmaries here in TX. I am pretty sure you can in the election; though.
I proud that I was able to cast my ballot for Hunter here in Michigan.
Remember one thing..........if you do a write in, you give the democrats the win. Are you willing to do that?
Anyway you slice it, it isn't a good year for us.
Keep in mind that if you vote in the Texas primary, you are ineligible to put a 3rd party candidate on the ballot later.
Is there a choice for “UNCOMMITTED” as some states do?.....
If Fred comes out on support of McCain I will burn my FredHead hat, bumper stickers and other stuff.
I wouldn’t be surprised though back-stabbing is a way of life under the McCain administration.
The democrats have already won. I know it’s hard to accept but its a fact.
I’m in the same boat. I was hoping that I could actually impact the primaries as this is my first presidential election that I am old enough to vote in. Sigh... don’t even bother we won’t have a brokered convention anyways.
I tried looking online for the Texas Primary. Isn’t Alan Keyes still in the race?
And is there an “uncommitted” option?
If I vote in the Dem primary I get to vote against Hillary at least once.
I am. I want no part of what happens to this country in no way shape of form being accredited to a Republican ( conservatives by default ).
I do not care who his VP is unless he can guarantee me he will suffer a heart attack or something and step down on January 20, 2009.
