I absolutely detest Hogan and will actually lose my mind the next time someone describes him as a "moderate."

But I'll vote for Jealous over Hogan.

I'd have preferred Rushern Baker myself... but ya get what ya get and ya can't win 'em all, oh well! I'll definitely be voting for the "D"... I won't be pouting and writing in some other candidate. I won't withhold my vote. I won't try to "send a message" by voting for some third party candidate. I will remain loyal to the Democratic Party.

You will support the Democratic nominee, even though he is, gasp!!!, not your first choice.

You won't hold your nose, or vote your conscience or vote 3rd party.

Thank you for being a true Democrat and respecting the primary system.

What a race.

At first, I was with Kevin Kamenitz.

Then we both wanted Valerie Ervin.

Then we were torn between Jealous and Baker but settled on Jealous as the stronger candidate.

My secret favorite was Rich Madaleno but I never saw him as having a chance to win.





Edit to add: Fuck Hogan

Alec Ross. In the end I voted for Ben Jealous.

It was a big field and not without tragedies (Democratic candidate Kevin Kamenetz died only a month ago and was actually still on the ballot when I filled out mine this evening).

Now we have to unite and fight the good fight for November and beyond.

Madaleno was probably my top choice, but I didn't think he had much chance to win so I opted for Jealous.

Unless something blows up in his face between now and November it's going to take a lot to oust him
But... stranger things have happened
