Several years ago I registered as a Democrat. I did this after much careful consideration. Below are the 5 primary reasons.

I want the Democrats to think there are more people on their side than there are, to become overconfident.

I want voting results to show that Democrats voted across party lines.

I want the DNC to waste money advertising to me.

I want to vote in their Primary, helping pick their candidate.

I don’t want the PostOffice to misplace and/or destroy my ballot.
