"I have voted in five presidential elections, twice for a Democrat and thrice for a Republican. I am registered as an independent. While covering national politics for the last couple of elections, I have done write-in votes, choosing the ideal candidate rather than one of those on the ballot. Some might say this is throwing away my vote, but I live in DC, so my vote doesn't make much difference."It's a free country and no one -- including reporters -- should feel compelled to disclose their voting preferences. But it's interesting Millbank chose to share it nonetheless.
