US voters' views 2008: Texas and Ohio

In the run-up to the most hotly contested US presidential election in years we are asking panels of BBC News website readers to share their opinions and views.

Here, voters from the key states of Texas and Ohio look ahead to Tuesday's crucial primaries.

Lisa Fox Rockwall, Texas "Hillary is intelligent and answers questions in-depth and on-target" Michael Gaynor Dallas, Texas "Mike Huckabee is the best candidate to fill the role of president" Megan Kennedy Wooster, Ohio "Hillary is a better candidate because she has clear policies" Jason Rodriguez Dallas, Texas "My support for Senator McCain is down to his experience"

Michael Hardin Columbus, Ohio "Democratic infighting assures a Republican victory in November" Faith Waheed Cleveland, Ohio "Barack Obama will produce more change in Washington" Rob Mann Houston, Texas "I will be voting for Obama because he goes against the grain" A Rehmatulla Houston, Texas "I must confess, I have been left uninspired by this election"
