A Poll: Are There Any "Undecided" Voters 2012 Presidential Election?

Just taking a quick check to see if there's anyone here that's "on the fence."

I don't want Obama nor Romney and so I'll be voting otherwise. Does that count?

Our system really needs a none of the above option. Or maybe a vote for/against each canidate. "Against" votes would be subtracted from the canidates "for" votes, and you'd have to reach a certain percentage of the vote to be elected. Same with "none of the above". If no canidate reaches the minimum, then the field would need to be reset and a new vote taken...

Fine. So be it. Then both parties can go back to the drawing board and come forth with canidates the people will vote for. Since we seem to be stuck with a two party system, we need to do something to break out the rut we're in.

Remember, voting for the lesser of two evils, still means you're voting for evil. I'd like to be able to get excited about a canidate for once, rather than just voting for the one I dislike the least, or voting just in hopes that the other guy doesn't win.

How about getting rid of the Electoral College. That would be interesting.

One thing President Obama and Governor Romney have in common: neither of them is really telling us any specifics about HOW they'll fix the economy. So far from both it's mostly sound bites and suggestive language without much substance. Makes me nervous about either one winning even though I'm dead set against the President. Hope we get some competing plans soon...

Not true. If Obama wins we will see more of the same according to what can be gotten through the congresses.

At present I plan to vote for Obama again but you never know that could change I suppose.

I think there are a lot of undecided out there at present.

I'm undecided. I can't decide which one is worse.

I'm voting for Obama. I do not think this country can afford another socially conservative activist judge.
