Another reason why is it a WASTE OF TIME. IT DOESNT EVEN MATTER!!!
Conservatives need to vote for conservatives.
“We considered voting in the dim primary, but they stamp your voters card, and my husband found out that you are then considered a dim for at least one year. And if you ever want to run for any public office, that is on your record.”
CORRECT! You are on the record as being a Dimwit. You cannot vote in the GOP primary and get on the record on GOP party resolutions. You CANNOT attend the conventions, local, state or national. You WILL get Dimwit robocalls for years and years. You WILL get Dimwit pollsters and money-grubbers calling you. You WILL NOT be able to run for office as a Republican without being called a turncoat.
Most importantly, you will have squandered your vote for a fools errand while failing to register your vote as a real conservative. For President and all the races, Vote your principles. If you are a conservative, that means it may not be a good idea to vote for one liberal Democrat in hopes of stopping the other liberal Democrat. It’s a fools errand and neither Clinton nor Obama deserve a leg up towards the White House.
Be smart. Vote Republican and vote for the conservatives in the race. That includes voting for your favorite conservative Republican presidential candidate, whoever it is. Check to find out who the conservative is in your local race.
Here in Travis County, we urge Republicans to vote for Rosemary Edwards for Travis County Republican Party chair.
There are key Republican races around Texas, e.g., in Congressional district CD-22 (Robert Talton got the YCT endorsement) and elsewhere. In HD48 and HD52, in Travis and Williamson, Republicans have contested primaries. Several good conservative Reps - Phil King, Nathan Macias, and Frank Corte Jr - face challenges, as do some RINOs like Charlie Geren and Delwin Jones. Freemarket.org voter guide may help you decide.
