(1,494 posts)I was a Bernie supporter (and still am), but it was a no-brainer to support Hillary once she became the democratic nominee.

(11,607 posts)I briefly flirted with the idea of voting third party but only because I live in a solid blue state. Never would have had to consider if I lived in a swing state.
It didn't take long for me to decide that of all the available candidates, Hillary is the best candidate for the job.

If Hillary and the down-ballot Democrats can carry the day, at least the opportunity still exists to keep moving the focus leftward.
Thanks so much for doing the right thing.
