question everything

We voted Friday in City Hall. I just looked at all the ballots - someone asked - and only the DFL

has an Uncommitted option. Not the Rs and not the Marijuana one. All have Write-In.

I admit, I was taken aback by the long list of the DFL. Had to make sure that I circled Biden..

assuming "uncommitted" gets enough votes. This actually helps in the effort to not exculde people from the process.

I'll be voting for Biden this year but there have been times in the past that I caucused "uncommitted" and stayed that way through the selection of delegates. (Always voted for the nominee in the general election though. Uncommitted only works for so long.)
