You know perfectly well whom you’re voting for. The only reason you say you’re undecided is that it’s a cheap ploy to get attention.

This nails it for about 90% of the so-called “undecideds.” Or those who make it such a grand point to say that they are independent voters, best man for the job, etc.
Well duh. The amount of party voters who tow the line are a lot smaller than these people realize. Most people, even those heathens in political parties, will vote mixed ticket. It is ok to join a party. You can always leave if you must. But in most states, you then get to help choose who the candidates are. The more choice the better. A question for those independents: if you are so unsatisified with the candidates, when is the last time you got involved in the process?
