No, a Vote for a Third Party (or Abstaining from Voting) Is not the Same as a Vote for Hillary

Bottom line - I believe this could be a very close election - both popular and EC.
Now if in one State or commonwealth - a third part took enough votes from Trump - and the EC of that particular state/commonwealth made the difference in the winner of the POTUS........
Here is the problem, many see all these votes for Trump in the Primary, but of those votes especially in the open Primary states that states where your party affiliation is not checked and you can vote in either primary Democrats were voting Trump. Why because they felt Hilary could beat Trump and was the weaker candidate, Indiana was proof that occurred, we saw Trump have a big lead and Hilary lost to Sanders why because Democrats crossed over. Pennsylvania was a closed Primary yet Trump won why it was reported that 20% of registered Democrats switch their party affiliation and voted for Trump. In the General Election they will vote for Hilary and the Donald's numbers will be no where near what they have been. The election has been manipulated by the Democrats and the sheeple have been suckered.

Me thinks you have a bad case of Deterministic Divine Sovereignty on the brain.
Yes, I believe God is Sovereign. There is nothing He does not know, and there is nothing He cannot control. And there is nothing happening that He has not allowed.

So sue me! :D:D:D:D:D

Which States/Commonwealths are the ones, that you think in which Trump won because of open voting.

That is the crossover democrats who chose to skew the electorate with their votes to ensure He would win. Look at most of the states with a closed Primary and the results. for instance Kansas was closed who won Kansas? Maine was closed who won? Idaho Primary closed who won? Utah closed and who won that one? New Reports 20% of Democrats in Pennsylvania changed to Republican to vote for Trump in that primary. Who helped Trump get the GOP the Democrats not a majority of Republicans.

So no Rand Paul, and no response to my question.

In your opinion, of all the candidates available for write-in, who would you suggest or recommend? Who do YOU plan on writing in?

i haven't decided yet. And what do you mean, available? You can write in whomever you want available or not. I voted for Rand in the primary.

Please, let us know when you make up your mind. It'll be interesting to discuss his/her merits.

Cruz and the others are still on the California primary ballot. So, I don't have to vote for Mr. Trump in June. November that's another question.

ITL, this is one of the primary reasons I have said for years that there is no difference between the race hustling that AL Sharpton does and that which the likes of Levin, Hannity and O'reilly and Limbaugh do.

They don't care about much other than protecting their pockets just like Sharpton. If it means winning, they would probably tow the party line if the guy was named Lucifer Morningstar.

Try to stay on topic. Not everything is about race.

Keep your comments to yourself. My point was to the lack of character of Levin and the others just like Sharpton. If you couldn't follow it, oh well.

Your comment compared race hustling to political commentary. No relationship at all.
You're just eat up with race. You can't help it.
