    Why bother voting at all? What difference does your non-Democrat, non-Republican vote make? If you really feel the need to be self-righteous about it, save yourself the energy, stay home, and just tell people you voted for Cornel West or whoever. They’ll never know otherwise.

      why are you trying to suppress voter turnout?

        I’m not trying to suppress anything. It was a question. Again: Why are you expending the energy to vote if you know your candidate won’t win?

        You haven’t answered it. Will you?

          you will forgive me if I don’t believe you are “just asking questions”. it feels like sealioning to me. and I read the repetition and demand for an answer as petulance.

            And I read your refusal to answer such a simple question as proving you can’t actually back up your reason for voting at all. But sure, personal attacks might convince everyone that your avoidance of the question is actually proof of your righteousness. Let’s see how that goes.

              I made no personal attacks.

                Personal attack.

                and I read the repetition and demand for an answer as petulance.

                Personal attack.

                Anything else you want to lie about or are you going to answer my question?
