Sorry, I’m just saying that if people all voted for a 3rd party candidate that wanted govt out of their pockets and personal life things would be so much better than just voting to win or voting for the lesser of two evils.
Does that make sense? Not sure if I’m articulating my thought well enough.
The problem is everyone voting for a third party candidate at the national level is pratically impossible, including the fact that you have to convince people that the candidate is popular enough to even be worth voting for.
It’s and endless and unfortunately unavoidable cycle.
You vote to win in almost all cases. That’s how US elections work.
Sounds like sad and defeated outlook on voting. I think all that we can do is try and inform voters on third party options and hopefully things will change.
Unfortunately, this is how Trump wins. However, one could argue letting the dnc lose could also result in them bringing on more candidates that appeal to younger and much more progressive voters.

All I can do is vote with my conscience and let the chips fall where they may. I also try to spread the information on 3rd parties when I can.
