GOVERNOR (voting)

ThickeningAgent · October 2014

While there is no way I want Dennis Richardson to be our governor, I am so thoroughly disappointed with Kitzhaber I am really having a hard time with the idea of filling in the circle next to his name. Does anyone here have any strong feelings about Chris Henry (Progressive Party candidate) or Jason Levin (Pacific Green candidate)? I know neither of them will win, but I'm feeling I have to go third party on this one. Thoughts?

Yeah I was very conflicted by this choice too, but I felt like the race might be close so I went Kitzhaber.

I have issues with Chris Henry's Crazy Person Use Of Capital Letters And Exclamation Marks On His Website But I Like His Cascadia Flag: http://www.chrishenryforgovernor.com

Jason's website is also terrible and the fact that he's promoting his weed business on the homepage of his site seems problematic to say the least: http://www.jason4governor.org

I couldn't bring myself to vote for Kitzhaber. I filled in the dot next to write-in and then filled out the rest of my ballot and then forgot to write anybody in! I was going to write in Ava Gordly. Whoops. :(

Remember, you're not endorsing the person you vote for. You're just selecting them from a list of choices, less than ideal those choices may be.

I know you already voted @Bill_McKinley, but you should remember that you can always cast a blank ballot. I learned this from @zin. You can register to vote and be counted yet vote for no one, which to me is a more compelling gesture than selecting from a list of undesirable choices.
