My answer: "None of your business"

I'm so very thankful that the elections are finally over.

We had people calling on the phones and even a few people that knocked on our door too.  This year I was really shocked that on the phone and in person, these people actually had the nerve to ask me who I was voting for.  UH....hello?!?!  There is a reason the voting process in anonymous.   To which each time I was asked I just said  that is "none of your business".  I even shot the guy a dirty look when he asked me to my face.  How ballsy is that??  Even though I did vote for who he was representing...I still don't feel comfortable sharing that information, especially with people I do not know.

Now if you don't mind sharing that info, that is great.  More power to you.  I have my own political opinions and I certainly take others opinions into consideration but I make up my own mind and I don't impose my views on others.  Especially if it is not asked for.  If I want information on any candidate for an election, I look it up myself and compare then make my choice.  No amount of debating from supporters, phone calls, door to door visits will change my mind once it is made.

I'm not the type of person that particularly likes to debate, but if it is something I feel strongly about I will defend my view point.  However, I will not be offended of others feel differently.  I just don't understand those who cannot see that.

Have any of you come across those kinds of campaigns this year??  Did they ask you too??  If so, what did you say?
