Who did you vote for in 2000?

[Killarney]

Trying to figure something out... the answers to this will help. Thanks.

[H2O Man]

1. Gore.

I am curious how people who voted for Nader feel about that now?

[teach1st]

3. Wish I hadn't have voted for Nader...

There was a BIG difference between Bush and anybody.

[ulysses]

11. fine.

Here, anyway.

[Crunchy Frog]

29. I would feel much worse about it

if I lived in a state where the vote was close. I would feel very bad if I lived in Florida. In my state, a vote for Gore wouldn't have done him a particle of good, so I'm OK with my concience.

[bigwillq]

2. Gore/Lieberman

Wow, can't believe I just said Lieberman

[CalebHayes]

4. I was 10 years of age. So I did not vote, but....

I did volunteer for Gore.

[Mass_Liberal]

5. I feel your pain

I was 11. It pains me that I can't vote yet.

[truhavoc]

7. wtg both of you!

I am so happy to see people so young being so politically motivated! While most of your peers are playing video games and watching mtv you are posting on this board and keeping up with the news. Impressed extremely impressed..keep it up

[NNN0LHI]

13. I am damn impressed too n/t

[JohnKleeb]

19. and I remember how people like me and LPFF are treated lol

good for those two heh. I was 13 then. I voted for Gore in the mock.

[texasmom]

22. I still can feel the pain I felt

when I was 17 and two months away from 18 in 1980. It was agony. I passed out literature for Jimmy Carter that day, but it just wasn't the same.

I'm so happy that you, Mass_Liberal and cqhayes, are so interested and involved in politics at your age.

You can make a difference at your age--getting people to register to vote and talking about the candidate you support. Maybe your enthusiasm will spread to others.

:yourock:

[Kathleen04]

30. Same here, I was 14 n/t

[many a good man]

6. Nader.

But only because my state was overwhelmingly for Gore. Had it been close, I definitely would have gone for Gore.

It bothers me that there hasn't been a viable left wing in American politics for a long time, that the center has moved so far to the right. I have to admit, though, that I have discovered there are still a good number of Democrats who are true (thanks, CSPAN!). I am hoping that our country's current brush with disaster will lead to a resurgence of liberalism in this country.

[Bonobo]

23. Nader here. Same reason as above.

[Devlzown]

8. Gore.

My state is very red, though, so I considered voting third party. I never have voted for a third party candidate and I've thought about doing it this year. I wouldn't even consider it if I lived in a state where the election was going to be close, but this is shrub country and there's just no changing it. I'm sure I'll still wind up voting for the Democrat.

[janx]

9. Gore.

n/t

[Webster Green]

10. Nader

Cuz I'm Green, and I knew I could get away voting for Nader in California. I certainly won't be voting Green party in the upcoming Presidential election.

[sandnsea]

12. Gore

Thought about Nader, don't remember why I decided not to vote for him. Maybe it was the Democrats are the same as the Republicans thing, probably pissed me off. If he's that dense, he doesn't need to be running the country.

[anti-bush]

14. Didn't vote

I was disenfranchised in Texas.

[texasmom]

15. Gore

Well, I consider it a vote for Gore, though I vote-swapped with a guy in Minnesota who wanted to vote for Nader but didn't want Minnesota to go for Bush. Happily, Minnesota did go for Gore.

[Clark4Prez]

16. Gore

But I wasn't involved in the Gore campaign, I voted but did nothing else. If it turns out the Clark is right about time travel....well, I'll make up for it!.

[LWolf]

17. Gore.

Having lived through the first Bush presidency, my main priority was to avoid a second. Even though Gore isn't really a good match for me on the issues.

I LIKE GREENS. I DON'T BLAME THEM FOR VOTING FOR NADER; I CONSIDERED IT MYSELF. IF BUSH WINS AGAIN IN '04, I MAY JUST BECOME A GREEN.

Meanwhile, I'm giving my all for an inside reformation. Should that fail, I'll vote for the dem in November, but may head for greener pastures after that. Pun intended.

[Kal Belgarion]

18. Couldn't vote

I was only 14. However, this time I get to personally kick Dubya out of the White House. I can't wait until I cast my first vote this November. :)

[NoPasaran]

20. Gore

Like most Americans

[MODemocrat]

21. I voted for Gore in both the Primary and General elections

I'm so happy about what my Grandson told me; he said that his first vote was for Nader, but this election, he is going to vote for the democratic candidate. He is leaning toward Howard Dean, but says he will vote for whoever the democratic nominee is.

Yipee :bounce: :bounce:

[NNN0LHI]

24. I voted for Bush

by accident. Punched the wrong damn chad. And yea I am joking. I voted for Gore.

Don

[corporatewhore]

25. i was 14 iwas rootin for gore cursing nader until my teach set me straight

Opened my eyes to injustices that dems commited and helped to radicalize me i and i thank her for that

[The Magistrate]

31. A Touching Tale, Sir

What were these great injustices committed by the Democratic Party?

[Edge]

26. Don't blame me. I voted for Gore.

:)

I believe he's the rightful president...but hey, who on this website doesn't?

[Turkw]

27. It was about judges, especially supreme court justices, so I voted Gore!

My uncle kept pushing Nader, whom I like, but I couldn't make my uncle understand until after the election.

[Crunchy Frog]

28. Nader

I live in a state that went overwhelmingly for Bush, so my vote wouldn't have done anything for Gore anyway.

I was really pissed off at both Gore and the Democratic party, and wanted to send a message that they can't just take my vote for granted.

I will be voting for the Democratic nominee no matter what this time, however my state votes. I think it's most important to send a message of unity against Bush.

If the Democratic party blows it and loses to Bush this time, I may move on to "Greener" pastures. If you're going to be a member of a party that can't win elections, it might as well be a party that actually stands for something.

[IronLionZion]

32. I really really wanted to vote for Gore

but was 17 at the time. argh! He still got PA and the pop. vote and Florida. Gore was so much better than the media would have you believe. He should have destroyed Bush.

[Anwen]

33. Gore

I turned 18 just in time to vote for Gore :)

[aQuArius]

34. My 1st Presidential Election...

I turned 18 in Dec 1996, so I couldn't vote in '96. I was so excited to vote in 2000 and I voted Gore. I was sooooooooo sure he was going to win and as we ALL know, he did. I can NOT tell you how much I screamed at my TV when the Supreme Court elected shrubya. I was 8 months pregnant and PISSED as hell. However, my daughter arrived during the Clinton administration, Jan. 19, 2001. The day after she was born, I was nausious from the pain of labor and having to watch the shrub take office.

[poskonig]

35. Nader

Yes, I am a sinner.

[mountainvue]

36. Gore

When I wnet to bed he was winning and then when I woke up...well you know.
