I'm a Washington State voter. For POTUS, I've voted democrat since 1996, the first year I was eligible to vote.
I've voted for candidates from both parties. I voted for Kim Wyman and Andy Hill. I would have voted for McCain, but he brought as his running mate a Christian dominionist idiot.
My hand shook a bit when I marked republican on the declaration box. I did it to vote for Nikki Haley. I know she's anti-choice, but I think she's actually quite moderate. She's also the daughter of Indian immigrants of the Sikh religion. They are the warriors of India, and some of the most industrious people alive today.
So I set aside my concerns over abortion rights and voted for her. I hope she makes an independent run and moves to the center politically.
It would be my pleasure to see a Desi woman be the first female POTUS!
GO NIKKI HALEY!
