This election has become "voting to keep someone out of office". Voting third party would purely make your vote null. If Bernie ran as independent at this point, you schism the votes on the democratic side and Annoying Orange will end up winning.


As it stands, its going to be Annoying Orange v Hillary. And I honestly don't see Annoying Orange winning at all.

i always find it ironic how someone talks about how you shouldn't vote for candidates that won't win, because people not voting for them because they won't win is exactly why they never do win

even in cases like this where both of the main parties' candidates are stuff, they'd rather choose the lesser of two evils than a smaller good

What is the point of doing a "small good" if its literally throwing away your vote? Does voting a better candidate from some small third party in the election help you sleep better at night, even if you get someone like Annoying Orange in the White House?

the point in voting for a small good is that it wouldn't be small if you actually followed through with their opinions
