    On paper it’s a vote for Jill, but in effect it’s a vote for the party you dislike more. Are you more of a practical person or more of a person concerned with technicalities?

      there is no reason one excludes the other. and, in practice, if they count my vote for Biden or Trump, they are cheating.

        And this, ladies and gentlemen, is the definition of a strawman fallacy. You’re arguing against a point nobody made.

            That is literally not how they will be counted. You’re still not getting it. There would just be a practical effect of your vote working against your adjacent interests.
