Undecided future voter - Please help?

[Visitor User 253]

So I recently became naturalized and I am now registered to vote but undecided on who to vote for.

 

My main issues are Taxes and Healthcare. I know there is a Isidewith website where we answer questions and it lets us know the results. Should I go with that?

It's up to you, and we can't tell you whom to vote for.

We do congratulate you on your naturalization and your civic spirit!

 

Maybe take some paper, list your issues on one side, and list candidates' platforms on the other side.

See who matches up best.  No candidate will ever be a 100% match.

Again:  No one can tell you whom to vote for.

As mentioned, decide for yourself based on your political desires, and when some simply say one Party is better than the other, take that with a grain of salt.  Also remember that local elections are extremely important (it is not just all about who is running for President, Governor or Senator).

 

Congrats on your naturalization!

It depends. I don’t want the Trump tax cuts to end which saved me money. Also, looking to get cheaper healthcare than what we have for ACA.

It’s all good. I am neutral and respect what others believe it.

Taxes and Healthcare for me.

Taxes are big for me as well, and I agree, despite how the Trump tax cuts are framed by most of the media, they benefitted a lot of people that are not in the 1%.

 

Healthcare is a tougher one since much of that is handled by the states.  I don't really see the US adopting a system like in Canada or the UK, but it would be nice to see the costs come down.  One wonders if the high cost of healthcare here in the US is somewhat caused by the insurance bureaucracy created by various governments.  I know with me, I often offer to pay cash for things, and it seems things can be cheaper when the insurance bureaucracy is cut out.

Don't bother to vote.  The elections are rigged.

Personally, I also vote based on the policies behind the candidate and the party...not, necessarily, the person.

ACA was a good start but it’s not cheap. It’s good for low income people.

No. This is USA. I trust our system.

I will vote on based on what benefits me directly.
