Yeah, it'll probably be over on the democratic side when Tuesday is done. Meaning that we don't get to be decisive here in California.

Still though, as independent, I can vote either way, so, assuming Trump hasn't completely bulldozed everybody else into exiting, I'll vote for whoever isn't Trump. Most likely Rubio, who actually is one of the saner candidates (by republican standards) of those remaining.

I'm also secretly rooting for Rubio anyway because it's about time we got a Millenial or Gen Xer up there.

More salt than the Salar de Uyuni, yikes.

Does probably mean I'll actually get to vote for someone besides clinton in the primary, though, which is nice(?).

Dude, that's about as bad as voting for Hillary because she has a vagina. Yes, it'd be great to have a female President. Just not THAT female. It'd be great to have a GenX President. But not THAT GenX'er.

I'm not heavily rooting for Rubio, it's just something that makes him ever so slightly more acceptable over the others. Besides, if we end up with a republican president, I'd rather it be Rubio over the others, and not just because he is young and a minority.

I haven't even made a solid decision on anybody anyhow, besides Trump that is.

Rubio and Hillary are basically two sides of the same coin. Different parties but almost exactly the same sort of pandering, swing with the political winds, establishment attitudes.

Also given Rubio's penchant for repeating himself when stressed, I'd give him about the same odds as Hillary for being a robot.

That being said, he is probably the least crazy candidate on the republican side that actually stands a chance of winning. But that doesn't make him a good choice by any standard. Only thing I half way respect is the message he USED to parade about immigration reform but has since dropped since that's not a very good republican talking point for a President.

Absolutely. He's a mandroid. Labels hurt, organic lifeforms!

Voting Trump in the primary doesn't really do shit. And I don't know that I could deal with the guilt if I voted Trump in the general and he won. I honestly don't know what I'll do on November 4. Probably stay home and drink and cry. Or vote all the downballot shit and write in Kim Jong Un for the Presidential race.
Definitely vote, if only for the downballot shit. I'd argue that those races are more important than the top billing in a "these will actually affect your everyday life" sorta way.

Right? A robot is a machine designed for work. He's an Android, a machine explicitly designed to mimic humanity.

Hm, despite her crushing win, the turnout is apparently really low compared to 2008.

Yeah, it's much more important to vote for Hillary because Sanders is a Canaanite who ritually sacrifices children to Baal.

I was really hoping, and looking forward to, a Bernie vs. Trump match for the election but it looks like that isn't going to happen.

You know voter turnout can swing things, right? Staying home because you think Bernie Sanders can't win, or voting in the *other* primary is just contributing to Hillary's delegate lead, since all the democratic primaries are proportional.

(Personally, I think Trump isn't going to make it through the general election, because BUILD A WALL THROW OUT THE MEXICANS BAN MUSLIMS RAID MOSQUES isn't going to go over well with people who aren't racist xenophobes - and he's so vulnerable to being Goldwatered.)

Not surprising. For the most part, democrats are like 'eh, Clinton's fine, Sanders is fine,' so why would they waste a Saturday picking between two candidates who are both fine?
