Is it true that if you vote straight democratic this will not include President Obama?

It depends on how your state's ballot is set up. Some ballots seem to be laid out in a very confusing manner. So, when you are in the polling place, make sure that after you receive your ballot, you are checking off the candidates you actually intend to vote for, even if the president and other candidates are listed in different places on the ballot. In several states, including North Carolina, there were chain e-mails sent out claiming you cannot vote the straight ticket. It is not clear if in 2012, this is accurate. So again, since different states print their ballots differently, look for the names of the candidates you want, and make sure you cast your vote carefully.

An example would be if you voted for Bill Clinton, Democrat, for President, but then voted for John Kyl, Republican, for U.S. Senator.
