I'm a new member here and looking forward to meeting new people and having some interesting discussions. 🙂

I have a question I'd like to ask about the upcoming presidential election and the candidates, but before doing that I decided to test the waters by having an informal poll, or a virtual "show of hands" if you will.

For those of you willing to "humor" the newbie and possibly participate in my future discussion about the pending election, please be so kind as to reply to this post with a simple one-word reply.

QUESTION: If the election was held today, who would you vote for - Trump or Biden?

Again, please limit your reply to the name of the candidate you support. No need to explain why you think your candidate would make a better president or why the other candidate is a complete loser only an idiot would vote for. Let's save those arguments for another time. I'd just like to get a rough idea of what percentage of members support Trump and what percentage support Biden.

Thanks so much!

I'm just an interested observer who is glad not to have to make this decision

Biden/Harris, and welcome to the forum. Who is your choice?

welcome Dixie

for me it is much more complex than for or against . 2016 I was a never Trumper who wrote in my choice . Gun to my head I would vote for Trump over Quid Pro Joe (aka Biden) . My vote doesn't count anyway because I live in the single party dictatorship of New York .

Trump. Not a great fan of Trump, but an intelligent robot would be better than Biden who seems to believe that 200 million people have died from Covid.

LOL, obviously the conservatives don't want to follow the directions given by the poster. They're ready to RUMBLE! 8D

Can't blame them...I'm ready to ROCK and RUMBLE myself!

Originally I was going to refrain from posting my choice for a few days until I saw how many others were willing to chime in... I was worried that members who supported the opposing candidate might decide to NOT participate, thinking that I might try to steer the conversation in a direction favoring my candidate of choice. But after reading your question and re-thinking my initial decision to keep mum about my personal choice I finally decided, "Why not?" After all, what is the point of a good debate/discussion if NOT to try and convince others of the "rightness" of your opinion? Lol.

Although not a fan initially (and still not a HUGE fan) I support Trump. That said, I will save my reasons and arguments for later discussion.

Thanks for participating!

Ahhhh, so I'm not the only one who picked up on that! I've seen so many posts about Trump's inaccuracies (at best) and/or lies (at worst) that I was beginning to wonder if anyone was paying attention to any of Biden's balderdash. Lol.

Oops, violating my own stipulation of simple answers, save the arguments for later. Lol.

🤐

Thanks for the welcome Tom. Thanks for participating!

TRUMP, the greatest orange man of the century (however young it may be)

That made me laugh out loud. Bumper stickers?? "Vote for Trump, the greatest orange man of the century!"

Welcome aboard, Dixie. Going on your name, I had you pegged as a left winger. Thanks for the nice surprise.

I look forward to hearing your reasons and arguments for supporting Trump. It's always a curiosity to me that anyone who is aware of Trump's filthy behavior can support him. But I'm willing to listen.

Ok folks, I'm back! Sorry for disappearing without warning or explanation. I'm sure some of you probably thought this southern girl decided she'd bitten off more than she could chew and turned tail and ran. Nope, nothing like that. Simply a case of equipment failure (my desktop crashed) coinciding with extenuating circumstances (a family matter requiring my immediate and undivided attention.) I just now managed to get both situations back under control and this is the first time I've been back to the website in almost a month.

I haven't even taken the time tothoughtfully read your posts, but I did do a quick skim and it sounds like it could be interesting if everyone's interest hasn't wained while I was away. I'm going to try to catch up and post some replies this evening if you'd like to check back later and see what the new girl has to say. Lol.

Thanks for the warm welcome. And again, my apologies for my unexpected absence.

Y'all come back now, ya hear?
(In my best Minnie Pearl voice. Ha!)

Hang in there, "new girl".

Nothing has changed to change my earlier opinion

I've already voted and didn't have to hold my nose to vote for OLE JOE!

too old to have a sense of smell, eh, no matter, the stench is the same from either side
