IBRacer: Not ‘Lesser Of 2 Evils’

IdBarrelRacer: I personally find it refreshing that (Coeur d'Alene council candidate Amber Copeland) isn’t a political mucky-muck. I’m looking forward to having a younger candidate that might actually represent a good portion of the residents of this city. Up until now, I’ve had the option to choose between the “lesser of 2 evils” when making my voting decisions. I think this race finally has enough varied candidates that there could be a ‘good’ choice rather than just a ‘not as bad’ choice. If nothing else, Amber has brought some youth to the race, and I think the younger residents might just get off the couch and actually vote. I know I’ll be taking a long hard look in her direction come election day.

Question: How often do you feel as though you're choosing between the lesser of two evils when you're voting?
