No. Absentee votes are counted last. I want my vote to be counted before a winner is called.

In Tennessee, early votes are counted first (we don't have absentee voting for people who aren't physically out of the state).

No, I missed the deadline to try for Virginia, and I have a while before trying for the absentee in California, and usually the nominee is all but clinched by the time it gets to that state.

No. Even if I could, there's no early voting in MA.

Actually there are absentee ballots, which are functionally the same thing (except I think you have to be out of town on Election Day to legally cast an absentee ballot, and the voting process works slightly differently).

Anyway, yes (absentee ballot).

No, I missed the deadline to sign up for an absentee ballot, so I'll be waiting in line at my polling station on March 15.

My vote no longer matters sadly because we vote after Trump is the presumptive nominee.

No, because the most populous state is dead last in voting. Not a good thing.

You think the big states voting earlier would be better?  Why?  It seems to me if you want population to matter in the order, it should go smallest to largest, otherwise the smallest 30 states will never matter in a primary.

The only fair way to do it is to just have all primaries on the same day.

I voted for Huckabee in Iowa, Pataki in New Hampshire, Kasich is SC, and Cruz in Nevada.

But seriously, though, I have not.

Not yet. I haven't decided which primary I will try to vote in. I think I may be required to vote in the Republican primary because I signed a petition for a candidate for judge who is running in the Republican primary (I read that rule somewhere).

If I can vote in the Democratic primary I will obviously be voting for Hillary

If I have to vote in the Republican primary, ugh...I really don't want to if Trump is going to just cruise to a victory. I will have to vote for whomever is the strongest alternative at the time.

My absentee ballot is lying on my bedroom floor near an arm chair. I wanted to wait to make sure TRUMP is still in this, and now it looks like he'll still be with us come the primary! If I weren't set on making my first vote for TRUMP, I'd consider voting for Kasich strategically.

I could have, but I decided to vote in the Democratic Primary instead of the Republican.
