that’s an undemocratic appeal to the “tactical vote”. i respect anyone’s choice on how they use theirs, but after having been manipulated years ago on that premise, i have refused to do it again
I’ll respect the idea that they have a choice, I will judge them if their choice is stupidly anti-pragmatic, though.
The presidential race is fucked. We’re not making it fair any time soon, especially not with a vote for a candidate who doesn’t have a chance in hell of winning. The best we can do is ensure that the candidate who’ll do the least damage wins. Anything else spells disaster.
In the mean time, vote for better candidates in state and local elections, where an outsider has a chance at winning. And if they do, they have a better chance at changing the system so it doesn’t suck.
