I shall vote
It won’t be wasted, as it will be a vote against Trump
Since we use the Electoral College system, a third party vote by me (should I choose to cast one) won’t affect the election outcome, as Connecticut will go to the D candidate.
Again, I have not committed to vote for Sanders or whoever the D candidate is. BUT, It doesn’t mean I won’t come election day. My first chance to cast a vote for a D candidate will be April 28th on Acela Day Primary here on CT. I look forward to seeing who is still in the race before casting my ballot. Right now it is all academic.
I am putting my current political energy into state legislative races right now, not the Presidential race. All politics is local and CT has too few D national convention delegate votes to be that important. In fact, I may even skip being a delegate to the national convention this year. Our Town Democratic Town Committee Chairman has never attended a national convention and has asked if I would consider giving up my seat.
