Third party voting is a piss poor substitute for voting reform. Your vote is counted but it does not count for shit. Your electoral college delegates’ votes are the only ones that count toward who is elected.
Counted doesn’t mean matters. You can be proud of being among the 7% who voted third part this year all you want when Trump’s goons send you to prison for being trans
Sure, but it would be a lot easier for Joe to win KS than for Jo to win any state. Joe only has to convert like 8% of trump voters. Jo would have to convert 40+% from the two real parties. I’m certainly not gonna help Trump win, so I’m gonna vote for whoever has the highest chance of making him not.
It sucks that we’re in a system that forces us to vote against the worst party rather than for the best one, but like. This is the system we’re in. If we pretend it isn’t happening, we’re only going to hurt ourselves.
Literally the same thing as far as I’m concerned. We live in the real world. A third party is not beating the two main parties any time soon, and pretending that they might only harms us.
Well, I hate to break it to you, but just because you don’t like the game doesn’t mean playing by rules you made up doesn’t mean you won’t lose.
You clearly don’t know the rules.
Any choice on the ballot is counted.
Not in a two party system.
They are literally counted. Go back to kindergarten.
You know we have an electoral college… ya?
You do know that the states elections are the ones that count the votes, right???

I see you aren’t a chess player. Given how you can’t think more than one move ahead.
You can’t even see far enough ahead to the current move.
Biden still can earn my vote if he wants it. If I were committed to vote for him regardless, I would have absolutely no leverage.

If that’s how we’re diving it up, then your vote only really matters if you live in a swing state.
Anywhere else and your pissing in the wind, no matter which way your facing.

What has a bigger impact, the 7% who voted third party, or the 33% who didn’t vote.

Then earn those votes.
I do not vote for genocide.
