Did you change your vote anytime during this election? If so, what was the turning point? What made you change your mind?

Nope. I've been pretty steady in my support of my chosen candidate from the get-go.

At first I wasn't sure which candidate would get my vote, I was only sure which one wasn't. But as the crazy ramped up, the decision was easier to make. ETA: my decision is based mostly on the empty Supreme Court seat.

I've gone back and forth multiple times. Our choices suck this year.

I've gone back and forth multiple times. Our choices suck this year. yes this a MILLION times over. I voted on Saturday and I didn't choose until I had to push that button. I had and still have a pit in my stomach about it and probably should have just wrote none of the above. I am truly sad that that is what we had to chose from and pray the next 4 years goes very quickly and we have better choices next time.

Yes...I'm still not completely sure. The only thing I know for sure is #NeverTrump!

I voted for Bernie in the primary and as the field narrowed I had to select another candidate, but at no time has my intent to vote for the Democrat changed nor have I been swayed by other parties. I certainly haven't been persuaded by Trump at any time ever.
I was never undecided. I would vote for a circus monkey if it could defeat Trump. I knew all along I would vote for whatever candidate had any chance of beating Trump.

I did not vote for Hillary Clinton in the primary, so I was not supporting her at that time. Once Trump was chosen as the Republican nominee and Clinton chosen as the Democratic nominee, then I chose Clinton and I haven't wavered since then.

I was pretty sure, initially, that I didn't support Trump. I've seen enough of his BS behavior in my area of the world. But my mind was open, depending on what evolved during the campaign.
Events and his behavior over the past six months confirmed my initial thoughts.

Just from Bernie to Hillary. I don't know if I have ever voted for a Republican for president. And I sure am not going to start now !

I voted for Kasich in the primaries but I will vote for Hills in the election. I am a fiscally conservative, socially liberal (for the most part) moderate, so I vote across parties.

I've been with Clinton since the beginning, given her experience and policies. I was open minded regarding Sanders and Kasich, but ultimately voted for Clinton in the primary.

No, I cannot condone the hatred, lies, and calls for violence that come out of Trump's mouth. He shows all the marks of a dictator, and I do not want our democracy to turn into a dictatorship. I wavered in the last election, but not this one.

Nope, my vote hasn't changed. In fact, I voted for Hillary in the 2008 primary and was disappointed that she wasn't our candidate then.

A few years ago I mentioned to dh that Trump should run for President since he was so smart on his tv show. And I was serious. I was excited when he announced his candidacy. But his constant spewing of hatred changed my mind. And so I voted for the first time in my life.

I have always voted Democratic, but this year I was open to Trump. I thought maybe our country needed something different. That was until I realized what he was all about. I thought he would pull it together, but his behavior has only escalated. Hillary Clinton got my vote. My husband couldn't vote for either of them and he voted for Gary Johnson.

Not yet; I'm still an undecided voter in a "battleground state." Me too. I am still trying to decide if I could pull the trigger for either one. I may just vote everything but president, guess I will decide tomorrow in the booth.

I was torn in the primary. But happy that I voted for her. I happily support HRC and I do not think it is the less of two evils. I believe we have one well qualified, honest, experienced candidate who cares about the issues I do and who wants to make the lives of average Americans better. The other guy is despicable.

I think like plenty of other Americans who were sick of feeling screwed by politicians and just the crap going on in this country, Trump at first seemed like he was going to take a different approach. Then, I heard what that approach was. Hostility, name calling, and the complete intolerance for so many people. Quite honestly, I don't like HRC either. I wish there were other true options to choose from. The whole thing is a shit show.
I hope we all make it through the next 4 years relatively unscathed.

Lifetime republican, only voting democrat once, in the last election. I always said if Hillay ever ran she'd get my vote. However, that did change. There were a few republicans I could have gotten behind but never Trump. From the get go I was against him. Sanders would have had my vote. I will not vote for either major candidate. Today I will be busy today deciding which independent I am going to use to tell both major parties how much they suck and then I will research the best way to vote down ballot- which is how I am excersicing my right to vote this year.
