  • And what about when I find both candidate A and B to be incredibly distasteful? If I vote for C and terrible B wins over terrible A, I don’t feel disappointed in the way I voted because I voted my conscience. I know this from experience.

    I’ll agree that the voting system is a part of the problem, but then maybe Democrats should get a little more serious about reforming that process. I don’t see that as likely since that would challenge their duopoly privilege, but would love them to prove me wrong.

    In the meantime, if a party wants me to vote for their candidate, they should put up a candidate I can support. I will not vote for someone that doesn’t represent my values.


  • Have to strongly disagree. If there are going to be political parties, the more the better.

    Unfortunately we don’t have a Presidential primary this year, when we desperately need one. So our choice is Biden or … Full-on fascism.

    You seem to make my point here. You don’t think more parties are needed, but you want to keep pushing the “vote for my guy because the other guy is a monster” line. Sorry, but I’m not going to vote for someone based on who they are not. You point out there are only two shitty choices after stating that we don’t need any more choices…
