| Election: Who to Vote for based on Poker Most voters care about tax budgets, education, health care, and I do too, but what about poker! I wonder who to vote for in the november elections. What representatives are pro poker? We wouldn't want what happened to Washington State to happen every where. I'm most concerned with California. What do Meg Whitman, Carly Fiorina, Barbara Boxer, Jerry Brown, etc think of poker? Have they made their opinion known? |

| If you are looking for specific people to vote for and only care about their stance on poker then the PPA has put together a pretty extensive list covering all the states and who they recommend voting for/against. http://www.congressionalpoker.org/Congress.html |

| Meh. Poker as a decisive item for your vote is fine in the primaries, imo. But in the general election, it should really be about the economy and other major issues. Also, please vote democrat, because if the republicans get back in control, it will be disastrous for the US economy, and really bad for the world economy as a whole. |

but... your congress is highly partisan. And if you look at the voting records, the leftmost republican votes more to the right than the rightmost democrat. In that context, voting along party poker lines actually makes a lot of sense. Also, fwiw, your congress is highly partisan because the republicans moved wildly to the right while democrats essentially moved neither right nor left. Obama healthcare is actually quite similar to what republican Richard Nixon would have done if he had gone to the end of his mandate. |
