Thinking of Voting for Destiny Wells instead of Morales??

[BJHay]

Polls say many Republican's may vote for Destiny Wells because Morales is seen as incompetent and morally questionable.
There's good reason to think that but my point is Well's is clearly anti-gun. As such nothing else she says or does matters. She can't get my vote.

With thanks to KellyinAvon her testimony on HB1077 can be seen here: http://iga.in.gov/information/archives/2022/video/committee_public_policy_1600/+

Did. If Diego wins they'll run him out like Charlie White and Holcomb gets to pick whoever he wants again.

Thank for the note. Odd that the web address doesn't change between the selection screen and video.
I updated my OP with selection instructions and a screen shot.

The user is two clicks away.

So, her argument was "muh DD-214". Horses**t.

If she wants training, why not make it an above the line tax deductions?

Lol, Indiana never required training, no problems.

Rights delayed are rights denied.

Her argument was as weak as a cardboard suitcase in the rain.

I suspect folks do not recognize how important a vote for a Libertarian candidate for Secretary of State is.

Or they just dont care. They dont want a Libertarian for anything, so therefore they DGAF whether Libertarians get the recognition and ballot access they deserve.

Or worse. They are ignorant and outright AFRAID that a Libertarian might win over their beloved Republican candidate.

I don't know how important my vote is.

But in every office that had a Libertarian on the ballot. I voted for the L.

+2 from Hamilton Co.

 

[Kirk Freeman]

She lost and we now have the first Hispanic constitutional officer elected statewide.

Since Destiny believes responsible people should wait to exercise rights, next time we tell her supporters that they must wait 30 days past Election Day to vote.

In 2016, I saw a choice between Trump and Clinton. I didn't know how he would govern, but I knew we had to keep her as far from the big chair as possible. Any third choice would have been closer to the Right than her, so would have split the R vote, not the D. There was literally no possibility that anyone else was going to win, it was going to be one of the two of them... and knowing only that she could not be allowed to win, I saw no option but voting Trump into office. When I saw how he governed, I voted for him again, and will in 2024, if he runs, as well.

So there is another option. When you see that one of two in a race are more likely to win an office, and a third option exists, that third will benefit the one farthest from what you want politically. I think it's called the Ross Perot effect... Ross Perot's candidacy gave us eight years of Bill Clinton in office.

Diego won by ~230K votes. If as many Rs who voted for him had switched their votes to Maurer, the difference would not have changed the outcome, alone, but we also still have three counties that have not been reported. It would not have taken much to sway it at that point and we end up with Wells as our SecState. Had the race not been expected to be close, I would have chosen Maurer.

I won't say I voted "for" Diego. I voted against the Democrat taking that office.

Blessings,
Bill

I won't say I voted "for" Diego. I voted against the Democrat taking that office.

And this is what's important. If the Libertarian candidate takes away enough conservative votes, we end up with a left-wing freedom-hating autocratic Democrat in office, and all the !@#$-storm that causes. I am a strong Republican voter, not because the Republicans are so great, but because the Democrats are so terrible. Anything I can do to keep a Democrat out of office is worth it!

 

[Kirk Freeman]

I wonder if her campaign realizes the damage she did by coming out against civil rights?

Awesome work @BJHay !! The antis all blur together, that was House Public Policy Committee and I do remember now!

 

[KellyinAvon]

Is BAN MBILLS as a write in an option?

But that is a myth. Libertarian candidates siphon from both sides.

That is overstated. It usually siphons off the most from republicans. Here is an article that explains a lot of what has been going on in this election. It appears the dems are making use of promoting libertarian and other groups as a weapon to defeat republicans…

Democratic groups fund third-party conservative longshots to siphon votes from Republican candidates

Democratic groups are spending heavily to boost third-party long shot candidates for contests in which vulnerable Democrats are facing strong Republican challengers.

Instead of a piece of **** Democrat, you got a piece of **** Republican.

Well done, Indiana

You get the government you will tolerate.
