Poll: Many Americans Still Unsure Whom to Vote Against

WASHINGTON, DC—According to Gallup Poll results released Monday, 6 percent of Americans are still undecided about whether to vote against President Bush or Democratic challenger John Kerry in November's presidential election.

"At first, I was really leaning toward voting against Kerry, because the way he tried to hide his ambivalence about his military service made him seem like a political operator," poll participant and Trenton, NJ resident Amber Barthelme said. "But then, the Bush Administration's mishandling of the Iraqi prisoner-abuse scandal got me thinking that there's a lot to not like about the current administration. It's almost impossible to decide which side I don't want to be on."

According to the poll, 46 percent of the registered voters surveyed would vote against Bush if the election were held tomorrow, while 45 percent said they were ready to vote against Kerry. Factoring in the 2 percent margin of error, the two candidates are essentially deadlocked in the race to determine which candidate America doesn't support.

This Onion article perfectly captures how I feel about this election.

Rats, it's from the Onion. They should actually take that poll, I think it would be very indicative of what is actually going to happen!

THis is a totally unfair and biased interview.

I think its totally obvious whom the country would rather vote against.

Ralph Nader!

Everyone who is voting against either Bush or Kerry is obviously soft on communism. Come on, there are some real villains to be voted against out there! [Wink] (wink since much of my humorous intent seems to be going undetected lately).
