    I used to criticise people for voting third party but after gaining a greater understanding of the democratic party’s flaws I now agree that it’s justified. The better question is, do you believe it’s better? Don’t let people bully you out of making such an important civic choice. I think the benefits over not voting are pretty clear: You signal that you’re an active voting member who cares about politics and are available to vote if a party changed their positions enough, but that you don’t currently approve of what they’re doing. And you help contribute to the currently negligibly small chance of a third party being elected.

    Also, fun fact, Nevada actually does have a “None of these candidates” ballot option!
