Poll: How would you vote, if no vote was "wasted"?

If you were able to cast your vote and not worry about it being "wasted", would you vote for one of the primary parties, or a secondary, smaller party?


Primary:

Democrat
Republican


Secondary:

Libertarian
Green
ANP
Socialist
Anything Else...

only a small survey so far but i'd be interested in knowing how the Secondary section breaks down.

personally i'm a libertarian left winger, somewhere between David Cobb and Walt Brown on the Political Compass


Edit: I became 'Tilted' with this post. What an honour!

Personally, I vote for whom, I BELIEVE to be the best choice. Party affiliation to me is way down on my list. Saying that, that is why I chose the one that says I don't know.

I'd vote Libertarian, and I'm going to anyhow. Looks like most people would vote differently if they could.

I would, and will, vote Libertarian. I do not consider it a "wasted" vote, as it is my vote to cast as I choose. My vote is my voice, and I will speak up. Besides, I live in Nebraska. It really doesn't matter who I vote for, because the state will fall to Bush. But at least I can still "speak".

I have to admit that I have not bothered to find out what each of the secondary party candidates support and believe, and thus I post 'not sure'.

I am leaning this direction as well. My state will go Bush also and I am considering a "protest" vote. I do not wish my vote to be counted as support for Bush, as I don't support him but prefer him to Kerry. If I lived in a swing state where it was going to be close, I would likely feel differently about this but I don't so I have a great deal of freedom in issue.
