Hooray, my first cheap Newsvine article!

Here's how it works:

  1. Please vote only in the Democratic or Republican caucus, not both.
  2. Please only vote if you are actually eligible to vote in the United States.
  3. Vote for your favorite candidate in your party of choice.
  4. If your favorite candidate is not listed, we will assume they have received a meager amount of votes, instant-runoff voting rules apply, and thus your vote will go to your second favorite candidate. Vote for this candidate instead.
  5. If your second favorite candidate is not listed, vote for your third, etc.

I have to admit I agree with The Otto Show on this one: I think this will be interesting.

Let the games begin?

If your candidate isn't listed, don't be offended. That's kind of the point.

    Well, I almost wasn't going to list McCain. I don't think either of them are going to get the nomination.

      At least you called it a run-off election instead of implying, as OttO did, that people are immature and not serious about the election if they choose to vote for one of the less-popular candidates. Hmmmph.

      YOU LEFT RON PAUL OUT. HOW COULD YOU?
      He deserves to be left out.
