Question- can you say who you would have voted for between the two?

Question- have you been out of state since the election, in a blue state? You get questioned?

edit- and I'm not dogging on you. seriously interested
1. I asked myself that a million times before the election and came up with "none of the above." The best I can say now is, knowing what I knew then, I was inclined toward her as the safer bet. If I knew then what I know now (Trump has actually created an opportunity for me based on a policy he's touting), I'd have been swayed by my own interests.

2. Yes. Many times. Most people are polite in questioning. My stock answer is, "I have trouble with the man's social agenda, and I'm leery of his trade policies. I liked her social policies, but I had trouble with much of the rest of her agenda. But the world isn't going to end either way, and I'd have been fine with either of them."
