Just curious. I included Johnson and Stein because lots of people seem to dislike both Clinton and Trump this year so I'm expecting whoever'll win this year to win by a plurality and not a majority. I'm also not including Bernie, O'Malley, Cruz, Rubio, etc. because they lost in the primaries and dropped out of the presidential race and are not running as independents. I only included two third-parties because pretty much nobody has ever heard of the others.

To be perfectly honest, I just wouldn't vote this year I can't vote for any of the candidates and feel good about it afterward They're all shit in some way or another

I wanted O'Malley to win, to be honest.
O'Malley 2024, anyone? Whoever wins 2016 is likely to go for a second term so O'Malley 2020 is unlikely.

I don't think I've heard of Stein, but the other three names I recognize.

imgur.com/gallery/n1VdVHere's a list of the candidates and their views on most things, just in case you don't know much about their political stances. It was a pretty interesting read.

Don't know much of O'Malley, so I couldn't say Personally would have liked a Kasich ticket. He's done right by Ohio, but I'm obviously a bit biased He would have been mauled in the general though

hillary is a lying shit who's just an out of touch conservative with a grimy poorly done coat of urban paint. Donald Trump is a relatively evil if benevolent ruler who hearkens back to my main man Reagan.
I pick Trump.

Trump says yes to anything not related to racism/sexism/religionism? Amazing.
Gary looks OK on paper, but I watched a TV show that had an episode focusing on him, and many of his key ideas I disagree with.
Jill Stein looks very good. There are some things she says I don't agree with, and there are some things Hillary says I don't agree with. Either of them would be fine, therefore.
If the general election goes to Trump, I say we choose the greater evil and sacrifice america to Cthulhu.

But is still a better alternative to Trump.

I voted. Personally, I don't support either Donald Trump or Hilary (Kinda likin' Jill), but at the same I recognize that she probably isn't going to get the vote.
If the general election goes to Trump, I say we choose the greater evil and sacrifice america to Cthulhu. [x2]
I read through that Imgur thing though - really interesting read, might send it to my dad.

I'm a centrist libertarian myself, so you'd think my vote would go to Johnson But he actively supports the TPP and net neutrality, and I refuse to support anyone who is an agreence with either of those two things

hillary clinton is a greedy scumbag that rigged an election with her pals in the dnc donald trump is a friggin neo facist gary johnson isn't really great but he does support a few things i support jill stein is topkek but there's tiny things i don't agree with
we can have 8 brands of coke but only two major parties both trump and clinton are doing garbage in the polls at 40% don't you think maybe we should have more of a choice?

In the case of the latter, not supporting net neutrality is not supporting the government coming in and mucking up the internet. A.k.a keeping the government out of what they shouldn't be in, a pretty key libertarian principle . In terms of the TPP, I don't particularly care what side of political spectrum not supporting it falls on, but anything that gives corporations more power than governments is just asking for trouble.

Net neutrality: "net neu·tral·i·ty noun the principle that Internet service providers should enable access to all content and applications regardless of the source, and without favoring or blocking particular products or websites." You bet I support the hell out of that. And I'd rather not let the corps fuck with it, thanks.
