Independent libertarian. I could vote Republican occasionally, and Libertarian occasionally. More often than not I abstain from voting.

Well I'm an ex-member of the Labour Party, Blair's Labour's not for me, but my Local Constiuency is a Marginal, so I end up voting Labour anyway. (Better than the Tories, and this seat is Too close to waste my Vote, It swings almost every election, well not counting the last one when it stayed Labour. first time since I started to pay attention that it's stayed with the same party two elections in a row!!)

I am not any party, but I am conservative, so, usually, I vote for the Republican candidate, but not always.

No one party fits my beliefs. I lean more conservative than not but next year I think I'll be voting mostly democrat.

None, and proud of it. Political parties are not a good thing in my book.

I'll register either Democrat or Republican to be able to vote in the primaries, though.

I'm a registered Republican because New Jersey has closed primaries, but my sympathies are usually more Libertarian.

Not regestered. Generally I vote for Green Party, Socialist candidates... But when they're messed up, I vote for the Dems, much as I dislike them.

I woulda voted Nader, had I been old enough.

Democrat
"Right now we can tell you a report was filed by the family of a 12 year old boy yesterday afternoon alleging Mr. Michael Jackson of criminal activity. A search warrant has been filed and that search is currently taking place. Mr. Jackson has not been charged with any crime. We cannot specifically address the content of the police report as it is confidential information at the present time, however, we can confirm that Mr. Jackson forced the boy to listen to the Howard Stern show and watch the movie Private Parts over and over again."

I'd vote for Democrat Senator Kerry, if he can get the Democrats nomination for President. He's the only real moderate among the Democrats. All their other candidates are straight-up loony. Otherwise, I'm voting Republican. and as far as party affiliation goes, I'm independent.

I don't like political parties, but generally I side with the Democrats. Though I didn't vote in the last two elections because I'm way too fucking lazy to be bothered with that kind of stuff.

Libertarian. Both the Democrats and Republicans want to trample our rights and expand our already bloated government. Less freedom, more taxes. Fuck 'em.

I am a registered Republican so that I can vote in primaries, but on big elections, I vote who I support, no matter what their affiliation.

I'm a registered independent. IE. No Party.

I've voted for Republicans, Democrats, Libertarians, Green Party, and maybe an Independent in the past.

I tend to think more along the Libertarian line of things but can't stand the extreme versions (we need certain government services, like schools, roads and police). I swing back and forth on whether I favor organized labor or not. I think that at times unions are good but I've seen what happens when they get too much power. Right now I think we've still swung the other way where the people/groups with the money have too much power.

I've really only voted for the Green Party once and that was a vote for Nader. Not because I was enamored of him but because I had planned on not voting for either Bush or Gore so instead of leaving the slot blank I hoped that I could help establish a viable third party, even if it wasn't one I was likely to vote for. Another party would have changed the mix of things and perhaps we get some new ideas going.
