    This is such a strange conversation. Do you really think you are some brave soul and everyone else is afraid to vote third party and isnt just being pragmatic?

    I vote for the dems because they actually have a chance of winning and they are the least bad option. I’m not afraid, not sure why you keep saying that. Thats pretty much the end of it.

      So you vote for people you think have best chance of winning. I vote for people who fit my values and who I want to be president.

      Feel free to keep doing what you’re doing and help prop up the Duopoly. That’s EXACTLY what they want you to do. That’s EXACTLY how they want you to think.

      Not me, I’ll vote for who I want to be president. Every time. That’s pretty much the end of it.

        I vote for who closest fits my values and has a chance of being president. With your strategy you might as well just vote for yourself.

          Hmmmm, funny you mention that. I just so happen to have a little bit of experience with that. And I won (a while ago). So no, not all third party candidates lose. :)
