I changed my mind at the last minute because I was afraid I would jinx Obama by voting for Jill Stein, since I voted for Nader in the Gore/Bush race. And I know one other person who did the same thing.

My mom voted for Romney primarily based on the fact that she believes his economic plan would Save Us All, and that Obama would send us spiraling into another Great Depression.

Basically that he knew what he was doing as a successful businessman (ha!). When I try to counter on anything political, however, she gets very confrontational and I get so flustered I can't think straight to state my case.
