Dunmer is my favorite race but I kind of want to go against the grain as it seems to be the most popular. AND I can't pass up the opportunity to re-enslave Tamriel under elven rule as either a Bosmer or Khajiit mage. I want to feel superior to others and I feel like the Dominion gives me a great opportunity to do so.
Finally I will end on this: I despise ALL humans, regardless of race, so the way I see it the other two factions are not fit to rule. Even if the Ebonheart Pact wins control of the land the first thing that will happen is the Nords, Dunmer and Argonians will fight over which race gets to rule.

The Ebonheart Pact seems largely concerned with dealing with the threat to Nirn rather than anything else - this (as well as my love for Dark Elves) is why I will be a member of the Pact.
Ah yes, because Nords were never power mongers extraordinaires who long for the return of the first empire and Dunmer are barely half as scheming as their yellow brethren... Yes, that sounds about right.
The Pact may be better at covering up their reasons or simply not coherent enough to formulate a common agenda.
Torn between my love for the Nords and Bosmer, and my utter hate and disgust of the beast races.
Neither the Altmer or the Dunmer have ever interested me. I care little about either and have no respect for them.
I am almost inclined to go with the Covenant, and be a fair-skinned Redguard.
I realise the grouping was done to match the geography of Tamriel. But still, each group really plays on my strong ES racism.
If I could be a Nord and not fight along side the lizards... I'd be happy.
If I could be a Bosmer and not fight along side the cats... I'd be happy.
Mind made up. Redguard and the Covenant.
Ok so I have made a Redguard in Skyrim..... I am loving this race. Daggerfall Covenant locked in.

I like the Dunmer males with the bent 195 degree noses, the triangular balding hair to the sides and the excellent English accent. Not to mention their beautiful eyebrows that create a '\ /` shape.

I always loved Morrowind because of Morag Tong but I see that the only guild of assassins si the foul Dark Brotherhood with their silly boys so I think I'll play as a rogue Bosmer who don't care that much about the war between civilizations. Hunting, selling loot, buying imported arrow, eating foes fresh and stuff like that, just to be in touch with TES.
The afore-mentioned personage has been marked for honorable execution in accordance to the lawful tradition and practice of the Morag Tong.
The Bearer of this non-disputable document has official sanctioned license to kill the afore-mentioned personage.
My first ever TES character was a Breton, I chose it for gameplay purposes at the time and didn't know much about them, but I grew attached to the character and the lore and from then on Bretons have always been my favorite and default race (though I have certainly played others).
Well I can't play as an Imperial, which leads me to wander towards being a Nord. Dunmer are also amongst my favorite races, and the Argonians are cool. So it doesn't take much thought for me to say I'll be joining the Ebonheart Pact.
I'll be a part of the Ebonheart Pact for me. Argonians are one of my favorite beast races, just because of the whole water-breathing thing, and I've grown on Nords since Skyrim, there's just something I've been enjoying about them, can't figure out what.
Though I will branch out a little bit, if we're allowed. I'd have a Bosmer, my favorite of the Mer, and I'd make a good ol' Orsimer too.
I will definitely be joining DC as my primary interest is in playing an orc (and this faction also allows opportunity for some human characters, which I will want to have.... I'll be only playing the one faction at least in the beginning)
If I play it will be Ebonheart, Ursula will be riding again. My characters are friends of most of the Pact races as well. I do like to be in minority so when the time comes I could switch.
If I'm not online, I'm collecting ingredients, that's all you need to know...
Daggerfall Covenant would be my primary interest because a) Bretons and Redguards are my favorite TES races and b) I'd be most interested in seeing that region. But if branching out is allowed, I'd want a character in each faction, if just to see the other regions. Of course, it depends on whether I get to play and how much time I can play.
I couldn't vote since there's no "all of the above" option.
It's my tradition to begin with a Dunmer, so I'm going to continue that, which puts me in the Pact.
On the other hand, I'd like to try out the races I've never played before, which are mainly spread out in the Dominion and Covenant, so in the end, I'll end up with at least one character in each.
I see no point in joining the pact, or the covenant. Because those are places we've seen before. We've never seen Summerset, Valenwood or Elswyer, so count me with the Dominion. Of course, I only ever play these things for exploration. So I just want a place I've not been too but heard good things about.
The one most of my friend choose For group adventuring, but I hope it is not the Covenant.
I really wonder how the stealth part will play in PvP, so I'll play a bosmer, or Argonian for sure too.
I think the "faction home lands" will only be open to the faction characters, so in the end we'll all have 1 character in each faction at least to explore it all. (they will not be in the same channel).
I am kind of lore ignorant. Which faction would an Argonian be most like to join? Because if I am not mistaken, if you preorder you can play as any race in any faction. Also, is it true that you are limited in where you can go based on your faction?

Lorewise, Argonians wouldn't stereotypically join any of them. Stick to the Pact I say.

Before level 50 you can only explore your alliance's home territory. At 50 the other provinces will open to you. Exactly how that will work hasn't been revealed I think. It is clear that you still won't encounter opposing faction players but whether you will play L50 version of their quest lines or new and unique quests, all of the provinces or parts of them... dunno exactly.
