What do you mean, there's only 2 real choices and one is absolutely Repugnant and the other is just Disappointing. Voting 3rd party is a waste of a vote, independents will never win no matter how hard bad actors try to split the vote from Democrats. So you either vote D to maintain Status Quo and try again to slowly change the system or Vote R and lose more freedoms.

We both realize both parties are bad so if you live in a state that will go to one party in paticular then vote 3rd party. What 3rd parties can do is to force candidates to do things we want. If there is 10% 3rd party, they have to pander to them becuase that wil sway the election.
