What will you do if your candidate doesn't win nomination? I will go first

If Trump doesn't win nomination and doesn't run independent/3rd party I will vote for Bernie Sanders. If Sanders isn't nominee I probably won't vote.

You?
 
This primary stinks to the high heavens...........................It has shown the true colors of the establishment.........

Trump is my first choice.................should Cruz make it close in delegates in what will probably be contested and gets the nod..........then I'll vote for him...................

If they steal it with dirty tactics that they are saying they will do..........I'll vote..........but my Presidential portion will be blank........................unless Trump runs third party...........
 
I have resolved that Bernie will not win. I am leaning Gary Johnson. I could vote for Trump maybe, possibly, but some of his experts he has cited as wanting to bring on board scare the crap out of me. A lot will depend on my local congressional race. Unless there is someone there I want to support, I might just not vote.
 
While a 3rd party candidate may appeal to you or me more than the candidate of either major party, the odds of a Libertarian, a Socialist or Green party candidate garnering enough support to be anything but a spoiler are minute.
Think back to 1992 when H. Ross Perot ran as a strong 3rd party candidate. Likely 75% of those that voted for Perot were fiscal Conservatives that, were it not for him, would have voted for George H W Bush.
The horrible result of 19% of the country voting for him is apparent. Had Bush won reelection, bill clinton would have faded into history as a corrupt former governor of Arkansas and his wife would have never become a national figure.

Guess Bush should have been a better president eh? Love how die hard folks always blame third party candidates for giving the election to the other side. The problem is with the die hards candidate that didn't do what was required to keep the job.
