Fine, I'll be the first to give directions to the minefield.

So, for the other Americans here: Are you going to vote in the upcoming election, and which party's candidate(s) are you voting for? ;)

I intend to vote for the Democrat Rush Holt for Congress. (Neither Senator from my state is up for reelection this year.) Anyone want to try talk me out of it?

Is that the kind of post you wanted?

I agree that this conversation should happen on Less Wrong, but avoided mentioning it in the article because I think it should be separate. So bring it up in the open thread. Or bring it up in a top-level post, but only if you have an angle not present in the general public discourse, which clarifies rather than confusing, and says something important other than or in addition to just signaling affiliation with one party or the other.
