There are going to be 24 of the states voting on the primary on Super Tuesday. It signifies the date that majority, or at least a big amount of the states vote for the primary (I'm pretty sure).


At first I was hoping that Hilary would win the primary so that she would lose the Election in November, but I'm not too sure it will work out that way now. She has a pretty decent chance, which makes me pretty angry because if she can't handle the stress of running in the election, I have no reason to believe that she can handle running the country. But we'll see, Obama isn't that far behind Hilary anyway.

I was for Huckabee, but it seems like he will go downhill tomorrow, and all his votes will probably go to Romney... not too sure how I feel about that since he is mad conservative.

For the Democrats I'm going to do it by state:
Alabama-Clinton
Alaska- ?
Arizona-Clinton
Arkansas- Clinton
California- Obama (?)
Colorado- Obama (?)
Connecticut- Clinton
Delaware- Clinton
Georgia- Clinton
Idaho- Obama
Illinois- Obama
Kansas- Clinton (?)
Massachusetts- Clinton
Minnesota- Obama
Missouri- Clinton
New Jersey- Clinton
New York- Clinton
New Mexico- ?
North Dakota- Clinton
Oklahoma- Clinton (?)
Tennessee- Clinton
Utah- Clinton

Not completely sure though.

I really don't know about the Republican party because I haven't been following it that closely. Honestly, I think McCain will get the majority of the votes because he's come out as the front runner. Romney just keeps talking about how economics/business is in his "blood". Huckabee I agree won't get much play.

Yeah, now that I'm thinking about it I think he will too. I didn't want to say because I really didn't know what type of people lived in Alaska, but now that I'm thinking about it I can't see the type(I don't know if that's the right word) of people who usually vote for Hilary Clinton in Alaska.

Yeah, I've come to accept that. I'm not too sure who I want to win anymore. My brothers friends are all for Ron Paul, one of them even organized a rally for him in NYC the other night... He is going to get eaten alive. Whatever, I don't even get to vote in the primary anyway. Yay for turning 18 just in time to miss the deadline to register.

California, I'm gonna stick with Obama for the Democrats and perhaps Romney will win for the Republicans. About Huckabee, everyone's right, he isn't going to get far anymore; he's in a very distant third. But the margins between Clinton and Obama are could almost be paper thin. Almost.

You can register at 17 and a half. Er, here at least. You can register really young in Hawaii too.

Obama '08! I'm not entirely sure who'll win but after about the first few states, we'll start to see who our next President will be. And for the record, I'm a little bit on the Republican side.

Haha, yeah, I know. I found that out too late. The day last day to register was the 15th of January, and that was my birthday. I thought I had more time, obviously I was wrong.

That was probably the last days to register for the primaries; you more than likely can register in time for the general election still, assuming that you'll be 18 by November.

I was trying to get my friends registered, and most of them failed to do so by the primary cut off date, but that's alright since they more than likely wouldn't have voted in the primary anyway. Too far to warrant driving home, and I can't imagine they'd have taken the initiative to get an absentee ballot like I did. But since then, I've printed them off registration forms and given them to them, because, uh, I procrastinate a lot and it was something to do that wasn't macroecon.

Anyway, I hope my ballot got there in time, and I wish I had time to watch news coverage tonight.

Huckabee won West Virginia by a huge margin, which should come as a surprise to no one.

Although I hear that a lot of people are voting for Obama and Clinton, its already planned out no matter how much we vote who'll be the next president. mellow.gif Its probably not going to be any of the two people America is afraid of change.
