[GCFL-discuss] Dem vs Rep

I do not know how it is where you live, but here in the Big Apple, most
local elections end at the primary.  If I registered as a republican or
conservative, which would be my preference, I would be totally
disenfranchised in local elections -- congress, state assembly & senate, and
city council.  Whoever wins the democratic primary is (usually) a shoo-in in
November.  Even federally, my vote is useless; the only way Bush can carry
NY is if Kerry makes a major blunder or if al-Queda attacks us right before
the election.

Lance,
I am proud of my freedom to chose.  As a registered Democrat I, of course
vote for Democratic candidates in the primary.  When the General Election
comes I vote according to who I think is the best candidate of either party.
That is freedom.  Of course I could just skip the primary, but why?  I have
the right to vote and therefore the right to say what I think about things.
If I did not vote then I have no real right to criticise any party or
candidate or local amendment, etc.
Excuse the type change, my computer has gone crazy this morning.
Keep up the good fight all of you and vote your way.  That is your right.
Nancy
