To settle this, vote Daggett. Defeat 2 evils with one vote.

I just voted for Christie.  I felt dirty, but it had to be done.

If I thought Daggett had a real shot to win, I might vote for him.

Though I really don't know if he'd be able to work with the legislature at all.  Eighty Assemblymen plus 40 Senators equals 120 enemies.

Don't the SPUSA usually run someone in New Jersey? I mean they're crazy, totally crazy, and the most idiotic of the groups that split off the old SPA, but...

Yes.  The usual suspects are running.  Same candidates every cycle...

Daggett would have my first preference if this were IRV but America's electoral system being what it is I guess I'd hold my nose and vote Corzine. I'm not really a fan of his but I don't understand why exactly he's considered to be so horrible or why Christie is all that great. Still, glad its not a vote I have to make.

Yeah, why are Oklahoma's ballot access laws so crappy towards independents and third parties?

Somehow, even if balloting laws were relaxed, I sincerely doubt that Oklahoma would ever give that many votes to a Socialist ever again.  Tongue

Definitely.
The failure of the Green Corn Rebellion and the "great white terror" pretty much doomed the Socialist Party in Oklahoma.

Nonetheless, the political elites in Oklahoma do seem terrified by the possibility. I think they even banned the red flag for a while - maybe it's still illegal.

Not just to spice things up. New Jersey, as a state, is royally screwed. They can't run from one bad Governor to another likely bad Governor without any executive experience or ability to work properly with the Democratic legislature... Oh wait, I guess no matter who New Jersey votes for, they are screwed.

Smiley I'm still rooting for Dagget. The two-party system has been perilous enough to this democracy. We must avoid it at all opportunities.

Christie, no questions asked. However, in 2013, we will all be seeing Governor Booker.
