I'll be voting for the candidate who best represents me on the most issues and the most important issues to me. Even so, I only agree with him on about 65% of the issues. It's far better than the 30% and 25% on which the two main candidates agree with me. I agree with the party lines on the majority of the issues, so a vote for my candidate is really a vote for what I believe in.
The only way to get a better representation of what I believe on the ballot is to run for office. I'll be doing that next year. I hope that enough people in my district agree with me that they choose me to represent them. If not, I hope they choose someone who does.
