It is interesting that since I began voting at the age of 18 in all but one General Election I have voted for the winner.
Nothing has changed. When trying to decide who to vote for and looking at every platform available, my decision came down to two people and I had to decide between them. I'm not saying who I voted for, but I will say it was one of the winners.

It was a very hard decision for me. I wavered on several of them and narrowed it down to two. I can't tell you how long I studied their platforms Monday night.

It's sad I am more concerned about someone winning than someone not winning. Very, anyone BUT this time around

It was rather an interesting result and I am at the moment leaning toward one of the winners as well.

I'm already tired of all the politics involved in a presidential election. When it comes down to the final two I guess then I can make an informed decision.

I thought about doing that, waiting until then, but I wanted to have a say in the process getting to that point. didn't want to regret not voting for the person of my choice should he not be part of the ballot come November.
