Are there really undecided voters out there

at this point? I've heard a few, not many, of the national news people on Fox and CNN talking about undecideds and I find that hard to believe. I mean we've been at this now for 18 months and even the most casual observer has surely seen enough TV and newspaper coverage to sort it out.

As clear as the difference is, and as many ads and coverage as we've all been bombarded with in a modern campaign, I find it very hard to believe that over 1% of the electorate is "undecided" at this point.

My grandmother had a saying when she thought something was decided and over and done with. She'd always say, "That hay is already in the barn." I think the "hay is already in the barn" for this election however it turns out.

Do you believe there are over 1% of true undecided voters at this point?

Would you feel comfortable telling me what you're thinking this late in the game and why you still feel undecided? What would it take for either candidate to really make you a solid vote? What questions haven't been answered? What's the biggest thing against both candidates?

Would that be too imposing on you?

Thanks, Renda. That girl has her daddy wrapped around her finger and loves every minute of it. She's my heart for sure.

Re: Are there really undecided voters out there

I have big moral and ethical problems with both candidates. I wonder if for me the most prudent course of action is maybe to not vote at all. I'm not sure that picking the 'lesser of two evils' is the righteous thing to do. If you're presented with two bad choices perhaps the third option is to not choose at all.
