Noam Chomsky says vote for Clinton if you live in a swing state.

[flpoljunkie]

Chomsky says vote for Clinton if you live in a swing state.

And, if you live in, say Massachusetts, vote for whomever you like. He lives in the real world and thinks it's most important not to have a Republican president.

That said, I will vote for the Democratic nominee in November--after voting for Hillary Clinton in the Florida primary by absentee ballot.

1. Noam is talking about the General Election NOT the Primary.

It's highly misleading to suggest otherwise.

4. +1 (nt)

5. Just another deceptive OP.

[Live and Learn]

14. +10,000 I call this playing dirty. nt

[OilemFirchen]

15. What's misleading?

What's suggested "otherwise"?

On edit: This OP should have been posted in GD. The kneejerk reaction is, nonetheless, still silly.

[99th_Monkey]

16. The OP is silent on what election Noam's referring to, and we're in the middle of the PRIMARY

not the GE.

And Super Tuesday is tomorrow.

The OP is deliberately misleading if it does not clarify that Noam is talking about
the GE, not the primary.

[OilemFirchen]

17. I edited my post prior to reading this.

Not "misleading", though. Would you have had the same reaction if it had been posted in the correct forum?

[99th_Monkey]

19. If an OP header says 'NOAM SAYS VOTE FOR HILLARY IF YOU'RE IN A SWING STATE"

ONE day before Super-Tuesday.. then YES .. I care not what forum it's posted in,
it's deliberately misleading to NOT ever mention that his comments refer to ".. the General Election"

[pandr32]

2. It is "most important not to have a Republican president"

And it is important to support Democrats in Congress, too.

3. He endorsed Sanders but said he would "vote against the Republican" IN THE GE..

...if he lived in a swing state. He was very clear about this. Your headline is misleading.

6. Sorry Noam

I live in what could be a swing state (North Carolina). If Hillary is the nominee I won't be voting for her or for a Republican.

[Jefferson23]

7. In the GE, ONLY. n/t

[phleshdef]

8. Yea, I'm in Ohio... no way I'm gonna NOT vote for the Dem nominee here.

With Hillary, I kinda feel like I'd be voting AGAINST a Republican more than I'm voting FOR her... but same result either way I suppose.

[Barack_America]

9. I'm in MI and my vote is my own.

[VulgarPoet]

10. My vote doesn't matter, my home of record is Texas.

That state is more red than a white conservative's blood.

[cyberswede]

11. In the GE - otherwise, swing state-ness isirrelevant. nt

[artislife]

12. Now you all like Chomsky! lolz

Ditto about the primary v GE thing.

[djean111]

13. And I and my family will be voting for Bernie, here in Florida - early voting, at the library!

Always fun, actually. This will be my grandson's first vote - he and his friends are huge Bernie supporters.
Right now it looks like they won't even vote in the GE, if Hillary wins the nom.

18. I live in Washington and I'll vote for the most progressive candidate on my GE ballot.

Note: Washington is in the "real world". But, so is Texas, and if (God forbid) I was a Texan I'd still vote for the most progressive candidate on the GE ballot.

[Beacool]

20. Good for him.

I will vote for the nominee. The thought of a Trump presidency sends shivers down my spine.
