POLL: If you knew then what you know now, would you have voted differently?

Given his behavior since being elected and since the inauguration, and everything going on, and things that have come to light...would you have voted differently if you knew all this before?

This is anonymous, so feel free not to comment if you prefer!

ETA: I think this question is equally applicable for third party voters and those who didn't vote.

So now that we know that non voters and third party voters helped elect him, and we see just how bad it is, would you have changed your vote? If you don't feel comfortable answering no worries. Just curious.

It's a fair and interesting question. I've done some reading on that topic and it seems there are different opinions and theories. One piece I read was in the Wall Street journal I recall. I think even the guy who runs 538 says it's not due to 3rd party voters.

I was a huge Bernie fan. I had so much faith in him and he had so much integrity. I was beyond disgusted when I saw what was going on with the DNC. It all just turned me off. In essence, I hope going forward we demand so much more of our candidates.

Living in NY and knowing it would go towards HrC anyway, I didn't feel bad and I wouldn't have changed my vote. If I was elsewhere in the country where it was life or death, I would have voted for her.

Actually if I could go back to the primaries I think I might change my vote to Sanders. But in the general election, no because I didn't vote for him.

This is a fascinating response! (Not in a bad way, just an angle I hadn't thought about). Thank you!

Always was proud to vote 3rd party in every single presidential election over the last 20 years and never regretted it.

I voted HRC because I KNEW trump would be scary bad and dangerous which is proving to be true

No, I voted HRC and I'm still with her.

ETA: I'm registered independent, but if I could've voted in the primaries, I probably would've voted Bernie. Would he have made the difference? Who knows!

No because I voted for Hillary and I can sleep at night knowing I didn't contribute to the current shitshow we're currently experiencing.

I was registered as an Independent and had planned to vote for a 3rd party but changed my mind once I saw the momentum building for Trump right before the election.

I voted for Hillary as an "anti-Trump" vote and would definitely would vote the same today.

This is the one time I voted 3rd party. I don't know if I had voted for Hillary that it would have helped her win since the popular vote went to her anyways and we still ended up with Trump in office. If it made an actual diff then yes I would have voted for Hillary

There are 3 yes's on the poll so far and I actually find that encouraging, to an extent.

I am the only other because I didn't read other responses first. Chat Icon

Anyway, I chose other because I did not vote for Trump, I voted for Hillary (though I voted for Bernie in the primary)

Ditto. We have to consider the possibility that people who voted 3rd party or for Clinton would have changed their vote to Trump.Chat Icon
