I voted for Bush this time, not that I expected him to lose NC. I also voted for Burr. If I had known for definate that Bush would have won NC by 12-13%, then I probably would have voted LP but the few polls that showed Bush only up by 3-5% here made me vote for him (I voted early)
The LP's only stated object, by their own words, was to throw the election to Kerry. The LP isn't conservative.
