Fellow Kucinichers - give me some reasons to vote uncommitted at my caucus on 2/5.
Do you think uncommitted delegates will have any influence over Billary or Barak? Should I just vote for Edwards?

4. Vote Edwards and try to force it to the convention
If Senators Clinton and Obama do not have it going in, I don't think either one will win.

5. I'm with you ...
I was supporting Kucinich, but now that he's dropped out I'm going with Edwards at the Dem caucus February 5th. But no matter who gets the nod, I'm voting for the candidate whose last name ends in capital "D" next November...

6. Caucus for Edwards. If not viable, vote uncommitted.
If elected as an uncommitted delegate, you may be able to support Edwards at the next level.

8. Uncommitted will have no influence unless it gets over 15% threshold in your Congressional District
So vote for Edwards, although sadly he may not even crack the 15%.
Personally I'm on the Obama bandwagon now.

11. Certain districts in California
Edited on Mon Jan-28-08 01:30 PM by cyclezealot
its possible a Kucinich delegate could be elected. That delegate would go to Denver and likely vote their conscience. Edwards? I am still voting for Kucinich. Rhetoric does not get our vote. Performance and voting records.
