I have voted in every primary and general election since I turned 18 in 98, and not one of the candidates I have voted for in the primary has ever won. Sure we get “loads of candidates,” and then the party picks the worst of the lot. Then of course there are states like KY and PA where I can’t vote in the primary since you have to declare a party, and that’s against my religion.
Not even close to what I said, but OK, you’ll notice I still vote in the General election, and I can count on one finger the number of times I’ve voted for a Republican, in the general.
That was the last midterm election when the warden of the San Diego jail was up for reelection, and had stepped down because we achieved the award of deadliest jail in the US. The candidate the Democrats ran was his deputy warden. At least the Republican candidate didn’t have a few hundred inmates blood on his hands. I would have voted third party if I could have, but no one else ran.
I hold my nose and vote for the least undesirable candidate I am given. I’ve voted for RCV multiple times, and I protest homelessness and police brutality as frequently as I can. What more do you want?
