I picked would Harris/should Trump but Ann’s dropped some ideas to suggest Harris and the Democrats have left an opening for Trump.

I am going to say that I don't know the answer, but the possibility that reaches out most strongly is "Will vote for Trump, should vote for no one," but that's probably projection on my part, disguised as empathy.
By this I mean that while voting for Trump, she feels that she really shouldn't vote for either, not that I think that she should vote for no one.
I might vote for Harris, because the quickest way to put an end to America's overseas empire is through economic collapse, and with the money that she is promising to spend "if elected," it would not be far off. But I won't vote for Harris, because I do still love my country.
If only "boring" were on the ballot. I fear that "interesting" is all we are going to get between Trump and the Democrats' Hobson's candidate. We should call this the Chinese curse election.
I picked the way you chose in 2020. In retrospect, I'm probably wrong. Trump is more predictable than his opponent this time, and predictable is boring.
My wife and I sat out the 2020 election because we had just moved to PA and weren't able to register in time for November. We were still registered in WI, and could have requested mail-in ballots, but only if we lied about having PA residency. I might have held my nose and voted for Trump that year - can't speak for my wife as it's her business - but in either case, my vote by itself wouldn't have changed the outcome.
This year, because the PA Supreme Court wisely negated defective ballots, I'm more confident that my vote will count.
Interesting that, so far, "should vote for Trump" is the overwhelming winner, but "will vote for Trump" and "will vote for Harris" are almost exactly split.
I suppose that's cruel neutrality before a group of Trump supporters.
Millions would be, but support for the Secret Society of Extraordinary GrrrlBosses takes precedence over all embarrassment and discomfort. Letting icky boys know how they really feel about Harris? Perish the thought!
The shall maintain the pact and just focus on teasing Harris till she develops some species of eating disorder.
The two directions available are completely opposite. To the disappointment of 1970s and 1980s feminists, Kamala is controlled by Democrats, Neocons, and the deep state... all steering us toward totalitarianism. This is so much bigger than "the first female President." Trump needs WI. Probably the hardest of the swing states to win. Drop boxes will be stuffed with fraudulent absentee ballots. Milwaukee will again produce statistically impossible tallies from some precincts. 95% voted, 99% voted for Harris. Saw it in 2020.
Althouse said she could not vote for Biden because of his blatant lies about Trump's Chancellorsville speech. Why would she vote for Kamala-lala-ding-dong?
I doubt that Althouse will openly support Trump, but anything is possible these days.
This is an oddly worded question. Why is it in the subjunctive? It seems to beg for a second clause, e.g, who would Althouse vote for, if she votes/if she were to vote/if she would vote? All the possibilities suggest she does not plan to vote.
At 10:44 EDT, poll is 376 “should vote for Trump” options combined, 18 “should vote for Harris” options combined. Small sample, of course, but if America was as wise as the Althouse commentariat, the election would be a landslide.
I did not vote, although I appreciate the proposition. I have great faith that Ms Althouses vote will be a well informed one, and judging from what she has been saying for the past year, it would seem that her options are clear.
To me this blog has long looked like an effort to sanewash Trump in order to appease and validate a commentariat that consists largely of QAnoners and conspiracy theorists, so I'm guessing that Ann is more committed to holding onto her audience than she is to anything else.
I just heard Sam Eliot made a political commercial for Kamala Harris. I voted Althouse should have gone for Trump but now after the Sam Eliot commercial, Althouse is voting for Harris.
The surprising thing is not that she'll vote for Harris but that she occasionally expresses sympathy for Trump. I live in NYC, and the hostility that people express towards him cannot be exaggerated.......If Harris wins, it will be four unbroken years of cringe moments. I don't think she'll take us over the cliff, but she'll be constantly hitting against the guard rails.....If Trump wins, it will be four years of chaos--not because of his policies but because of the way the media depicts him. It's very hard to govern effectively when the media is so hysterically antagonistic. Some Republicans have pulled it off, but Trump not so much.
A small but interesting point - I saw a Harris ad on the TV yesterday. She was reading something offscreen and I'd swear they had auto-tuned her voice to remove most of the nasality.
Fakery on top of fakery. Who is this woman? What does she really think? What will she do if elected?
hmm 34 votes for some version of should vote for Harris, and nearly 700 votes for some version of should vote for Trump. Unlike most folks on the left, the Harris supporters in this blog's commentariat aren't afraid to go into the Lion's Den.

A vote for Harris is a vote for "Death to America".
I'm praying to you! Look in your heart. I'm praying to you... look in your heart... look in your heart!
A vote for Harris is a vote for the headless horsemen.

Fully expect AA to vote as an MSM "educated" liberal.

Ah, a test of our empathy!
I am going to say that I don't know the answer, but the possibility that reaches out most strongly is "Will vote for Trump, should vote for no one," but that's probably projection on my part, disguised as empathy.
Whatever it is with Althouse, it will make no sense.
The real answer is that it doesn't matter who Althouse votes for, since our elections are fixed.
Kamala Harris is your next President. She's been selected, not elected.
By this I mean that while voting for Trump, she feels that she really shouldn't vote for either, not that I think that she should vote for no one.
I might vote for Harris, because the quickest way to put an end to America's overseas empire is through economic collapse, and with the money that she is promising to spend "if elected," it would not be far off. But I won't vote for Harris, because I do still love my country.

I sense cruel neutrality
And support for boring
If only "boring" were on the ballot. I fear that "interesting" is all we are going to get between Trump and the Democrats' Hobson's candidate. We should call this the Chinese curse election.
I picked the way you chose in 2020. In retrospect, I'm probably wrong. Trump is more predictable than his opponent this time, and predictable is boring.
Maybe she's become bored with Trump
Forgot Matt Taibbi
Listen to Harris’s running mate Walz:
“We can’t afford four more years of this.”
and vote accordingly.
I think Ann would be embarrassed to have Harris be our first female President.
of course; it Just Doesn't Matter.. Wisconsin is going to be counted Democrat
Maybe two more assassination attempts before November will garner renewed interest.
My wife and I sat out the 2020 election because we had just moved to PA and weren't able to register in time for November.

Biden has promised the next assassin will be a woman of color. - The Babylon Bee
I certainly hope Ann tells us what she's going to do and not keep us waiting. As Althouse goes, so goes the nation!
After seeing Ryan Wesley Routh's blue-stained hair, the 4th assassin will be some flavor of transgendered twin-spirited pyro-fox, I just know it.

If only.. ..
Why in the world should anyone vote for Kamala?
Althouse said she could not vote for Biden because of his blatant lies about Trump's Chancellorsville speech. Why would she vote for Kamala-lala-ding-dong?
I doubt that Althouse will openly support Trump, but anything is possible these days.

Coulda, woulda, shoulda had a V8.
At 10:44 EDT, poll is 376 “should vote for Trump” options combined, 18 “should vote for Harris” options combined. Small sample, of course, but if America was as wise as the Althouse commentariat, the election would be a landslide.
You forgot to include the option: "Other than Meade, who cares?"
So I guess the blatant lies about eating cats and dogs will rule out Trump, too.
I did not vote, although I appreciate the proposition. I have great faith that Ms Althouses vote will be a well informed one, and judging from what she has been saying for the past year, it would seem that her options are clear.
Pretty funny post. Funnier comments.

I just heard Sam Eliot made a political commercial for Kamala Harris. I voted Althouse should have gone for Trump but now after the Sam Eliot commercial, Althouse is voting for Harris.
Boring = drilling, correct? Maybe she's subtly telling us she's all for "Drill, baby, drill!" now.
eat teh cat, eat eat teh cat, Fredo.

Brilliant response!
You should be you. But I've been getting vibes the other way.
A small but interesting point - I saw a Harris ad on the TV yesterday. She was reading something offscreen and I'd swear they had auto-tuned her voice to remove most of the nasality.
Fakery on top of fakery. Who is this woman? What does she really think? What will she do if elected?
We don't know and they won't tell us.
How can anyone give her their vote?
Trump/Trump. Althouse seems concerned about the Democrats' attacks on freedom of speech and their efforts to jail their political opponents.
Not even 1 to 9 odds would prevent me from a long position in the affirmative on that one…
Your biggest problem isn’t that you are stupid, it’s that you are boring.
My advice: don’t reveal your vote - too much hate going to go your way either way. And you will never hear the end of it.
If one believes the choice is between bad and worse, go with bad. Vote for TRUMP! It could be worse.
Plus you can use your decision as click bait for your 100th birthday celebration.
Will our inscrutable hostess reveal which answer was "correct?"
hmm 34 votes for some version of should vote for Harris, and nearly 700 votes for some version of should vote for Trump. Unlike most folks on the left, the Harris supporters in this blog's commentariat aren't afraid to go into the Lion's Den.
