re: "By the way, I agree, chances are my vote has never and never will decide a public election, I live in NY."

You know, clo, in this day and age, there isn't usually a "top two." It's usually a top ONE - with the winner identified well before the election.

If the goal is to vote for someone who can win, why vote at all, when you already know with a near certainty who will win? THE #2 CANDIDATE OFTEN CANNOT WIN.

This is the flaw in your reasoning.

If Americans do not rebel... and I mean SOON... against this new policy of voting for whoever pollsters like, Democracy will be as good as dead. Democracy needs people to vote for who they think is BEST.

Decomp,

No, I meant my question to you was reality based.

By the way, I agree, chances are my vote has never and never will decide a public election, I live in NY.
