How do I vote strategically in the presidential primaries?
The fact that both Clinton and Huckabee are way ahead means that your vote is not likely to “count” (meaning: be a real influence on the outcome of the primary or the general election). Don’t let that stop you, though – vote your conscience. I voted for Howard Dean in the 2004 primaries, although he had already flamed out by the time my state voted. I did so simply because I though he would have made a good candidate, and a good president and wanted at least to make a symbolic statement to that effect.
