She said she plans to vote in the 2016 election and will not vote for Trump. She's considering voting for Green Party candidate Jill Stein, saying, "I really want third parties to have a say. I don't like our two party system." But she also said she might vote for Hillary Clinton, "I'm worried that if a third party candidate gets too many votes, it will cause Hillary to lose [and Donald Trump to win]. So if I have to vote for Hillary to keep Trump out, I will." She also said that when traveling in South America over the summer, people would ask where she was from. When she said she was an American, people would bring up Donald Trump immediately. "When I was traveling abroad I would lie about where I'm from, not because of the reputation that gringos have, but because of the current election. I feel bad being represented by [Trump]." TIE said he would not vote, and Crews said he is unsure who he will vote for after having voted for Bernie Sanders in the primary election. -

Ron Souchek, 62, works part time for a lawn care company in Lexington, Nebraska, seen here on Tues., Aug. 9, 2016. He was working on the grass at a gas station where Express Arrow cross-country buses stop in Lexington. He is a registered independent and says that right now, he won't vote for either major party candidate. "I wish we had a good third party candidate," he said. "This has got me worried for the country more than any other election. There's a devil and a devil's advocate," he said, referring to both candidates. In 2008, he voted for Obama and in 2012, he voted for Romney. He said he usually votes for republican presidential candidates but didn't like McCain in 2008 because "every time, the Republicans want to go to war." Souchek previously worked in the Air Force. Asked about Trump and Clinton, he said, "I don't think Trump has said a word of truth the entire time. I don't think he's stable to run the country. I don't trust Hillary either. She's a little more stable. I think Pence is good. If he was running for president, I'd vote for him." In the primaries, Souchek said he liked Republican candidate Ben Carson. In the future, he said he might support Marco Rubio. -

Antoine Meadows, 45, of Hollywood, California, is an Uber and Lyft driver seen here taking a break outside the Greyhound Bus Station in Los Angeles, California, on Sun., Aug. 14, 2016. His last vote in a presidential election was for Barack Obama in 2008, but he is not planning on voting in the 2016 election. "I guess I'm a democrat to an extent," he said. He voted for Obama, he said, because "I wanted to be a part of history. I'd love to be a part of history for Clinton, [but] I'm kind of done with politics." Meadows said he's a strong Christian. "As a Christian, I don't believe the world's gonna get better. Sin is increasing. [That's] the reason for Jesus to come. Me voting or not voting is not going to make a difference. It's not gonna stop the world from getting worse," though he conceded that voting might "slow things down." "Who has made the world better in the last 10 presidents. It was already prophesied in Revelations. God is about to pull out his wrath on the earth because of our sin, and I don't believe voting is going to stop that." -
